Air Fryer Potato Slices
Ingredients:
-
2 medium russet or Yukon gold potatoes
-
1–2 tbsp olive oil
-
½ tsp garlic powder
-
½ tsp paprika (optional)

Salt and pepper, to taste
-
Optional: fresh herbs (rosemary, thyme, or parsley) or grated Parmesan
Instructions:
-
Prep the Potatoes:
-
Wash and scrub potatoes (peeling optional).
-
Slice into ¼-inch thick rounds — not too thin, not too thick.
-
Soak slices in cold water for 15–30 minutes to remove excess starch (for crispier results).
-
Drain and pat completely dry with paper towels.
-
-
Season:
-
Toss the dry potato slices with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
-
-
Preheat & Cook:
-
Preheat air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 2–3 minutes.
-
Place slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket (work in batches if needed).
-
Air fry for 12–15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
-
-
Finish & Serve:
-
Sprinkle with fresh herbs, Parmesan, or a dash of vinegar if you like.
-
Serve hot with dips like ranch, ketchup, or sour cream.
-
Tips:
-
Thinner slices = crispier, but watch closely to avoid burning.
-
Try seasoning blends like Cajun, ranch, or lemon pepper.
-
Want them extra crispy? Spray with a bit of cooking oil halfway through.
