1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme, crumbled
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Step 2
Brush 2 large baking sheets well with some oil.
Step 3
Peel potatoes and with a mandoline or other hand-held slicing device cut length-wise into 1/8-inch-thick slices. Immediately arrange potatoes in one layer on baking sheets and brush with remaining oil.
Step 4
Bake potatoes in middle of oven until golden, 12 to 15 minutes, and while still warm transfer with a metal spatula to racks. Sprinkle with thyme and salt to taste. Chips may be made 3 days ahead. Cool chips completely and keep in an airtight container at room temperature.
