Instructions

Wash and scrub the potatoes well. Slice into thin rounds about 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick.
Pat the potato slices dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
In a large bowl, toss the slices with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Preheat the air fryer to 380°F (193°C) for 3–5 minutes.
Arrange the potato slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
Air fry for 12–15 minutes, flipping the slices halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the air fryer and optionally garnish with fresh parsley or grated Parmesan. Serve hot.

Notes

For creamier texture, use Yukon Gold potatoes instead of russet.

Add smoked paprika or chipotle powder for a smoky flavor.

Top with shredded cheese in the last 1–2 minutes of cooking for a cheesy variation.

Toss with Cajun or Italian seasoning for a flavor twist.

For extra crunch, coat with grated Parmesan before air frying.

Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days; reheat in air fryer at 350°F for 3–5 minutes.
