Easy Baked Collard Chips

Directions

1. 1
   Preheat oven to 400°F.
2. 2
   Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
3. 3
   Remove stems from collard greens and cut leaves into 1.5-inch pieces. Place approximately 4 cups of leaves in bowl.
4. 4
   Drizzle olive oil over leaves and toss to coat. Arrange leaves in an even layer on baking sheet, spreading them out as much as possible. Salt leaves.
5. 5
   Pro tip: Avoid letting leaves overlap to optimize for crispy chips! If they do not fit onto a single baking sheet, try dividing leaves between two sheets.
6. 6
   Bake collard chips on middle rack of oven for 11-15 minutes, until browned and crispy. Keep a close eye toward end of cooking to avoid burning.
7. 7
   Check to see that collard chips are done. Remove from oven or add time as needed.
8. 8
   Season collard chips liberally with salt. Serve immediately.
