Ingredients
  

  • 1 Russet Potato Scrubbed and peeled
  • 1 tablespoon Canola Oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon Kosher Salt Plus additional

Instructions
 

  • Set a mandolin on the thinnest setting. Slice the potato.
  • In a gallon-size zip top bag, place the potato slices, oil and salt. Shake until the slices are well-coated.
  • Line a microwave-safe plate with a piece of parchment paper. Place potato slices in a single layer so they do not touch. Sprinkle with additional kosher salt. Reserve the remaining potato slices.
  • Microwave the plate on high for 3 to 5 minutes, watching closely. The chips are done when they just start to brown. Do not over brown. And do not undercook, as the chips will not crisp.
  • Remove the chips and let cool. Repeat with the remaining chips.
