Easy Roasted Potato Crisps

When people tell me a recipe is easy, I typically take “easy” with some skepticism. My idea of easy is much simpler than most people. I’ve been known to ruin easy recipes because I typically need an easy recipe when I have no time or patience — it needs to be one to two steps and done. At a friend’s pool party, I fell in love with her Roasted Potato Crisps, and when she described how she made them they sounded easy. So the next time I needed a quick side after a long summer day of play, I gave them a try.

Guess what?! They really are as easy as she said, and oh my are they good. (Thanks for the recipe Ms. J!)

Roasted Potato Crisps
These Roasted Potato Crisps are the perfect side dish for a BBQ, a potluck or even a quick meal. And ohhh boy are they tasty. They are my new favorite way to eat potatoes.

And, perhaps even better than being easy, my kids love them. After dinner we decided we needed more and ate them like potato chips on the couch. How’s that for a hit?!

How To Make Potato Crisps Recipe

  • 1 Bag of Honey Gold Potatoes (you could sub other mini potatoes, but these are perfect!)
  • Olive oil
  • Salt
  • Pepper

Roasted Potato Crisps Recipe
Directions

Wash and then slice the potatoes extra thin. (This is the most time-consuming part.)

In a bowl generously coat in olive oil — don’t be skimpy — then salt and pepper.

Spread the potatoes on a baking tray and cook at 425 for 15 minutes. Toss potatoes and cook for another 15 minutes. Check to make sure they are nice and crispy — they should be slightly brown. (Tip, I tossed them again and put them in for an extra five minutes watching them carefully.)

Serve and enjoy!

Roasted Potato Crisps Sidedish
I am all about a simplified life, which is why I am a Finish Power & Free Mom. Whenever I can I do things to make life simpler, like prepping my potatoes on the porch while the kids got extra time in the pool — a win-win.  And after dinner, I rely on Finish Power and Free to clean our dishes without harsh chemicals Using no chlorine bleach and no fragrances or dyes, Finish Power and Free cuts through the greasy dishes with the power of hydrogen peroxide.

That’s important to me because the last thing my kids need is to be exposed to more chemicals when I am trying to clean the dishes.

And adding Jet-Dry Power & Free Rinse Aid to my dishwasher means that my dishes will be clean and spot-free. So dirty dishes go in, and the next day clean/spotless dishes come out.

If I only had a robot to help me put away all of my clean dishes…

Finish Power and Free
What will you do with your extra time when you stop scrubbing dishes and let Finish Power & Free do the dirty work?

  8. Wow i didn’t think they would get crispy, thanks for the reassurance to try again, maybe when i did it i didn’t use enough oil or cook long enough, but this is the healthier and cleaner way about it, they don’t make finish for counters and cook tops yet, lol. Finish is amazing i don’t know what i would do without it. thanks for the recipe on oven potato’s, who knew its that easy,lol.

  10. If I’m lucky enough to win this giveaway, I’d use the gift card to restock my pantry and cleaning supplies. Lately it seems we’ve exhausted a lot of the items I had stock of so I’m always having to run out to the grocery for one or two items I should have on hand. I just don’t have the canned, boxed, or otherwise packaged items that I usually have on hand to throw together a quick dinner if I’m running late on things or am just tired from my day. Having my pantry restocked would be a real godsend for me.

  19. I do not have a dishwasher and I cannot think of a better way to spend the money from Power & Free, then buying one. I would love to have a dishwasher as I think it cleans so much better than hand washing. Plus on the sanitize mode I could clean my mason jars for canning. That would be awesome, and would certainly free me up to do other things. 🙂

  20. I go through so much Finish that I’m out already and need to get more! I’m expecting with my first so I’d definitely need more Finish to keep the dishes clean so I don’t need to wash them by hand! I’d also use it to get some cloth diapers and special laundry detergent to clean them with! Whatever makes life with a baby a little easier! 🙂

  21. I think I’d like to use it to get an air fryer and a rice steamer. The rice steamer would be the most helpful because I like to eat rice and that would make it easier to cook. Of course a dishwasher would be nice too. BTW Those potatoes look so good, I wish I had some right now!
