We LOVE sweet potatoes! Sweet potatoes are packed full of good-for-you stuff and they explode with sweet delicious flavor too! When I found this recipe on the Reynolds Kitchens's website I knew I had to try it!

These chips are baked to keep them healthy. I left the skin on too, and the edges get nice and crispy while the middle just melts in your mouth with sweet and tasty orangey goodness! Aren't they pretty?! I LOVE the vibrant orange color of the sweet potato!

Dipping the sweet potato chips in the garlic aioli dipping sauce takes them over the top! OMG y'all - it is sooo good! The flavors work so well together it's hard to stop eating them! I only wish I had made more!

Don't get me wrong, the chips are good on their own, but the sauce is so easy to make, there really isn't a reason NOT to make it! Who really wants to eat just a plain chip anyway? Part of the fun in eating chips is dipping them into a cool, creamy, tangy sauce!

I did change up the recipe just a little bit because that is what I do. I love to find wonderful recipes and remake them to suit our taste. It is easy to put your own spin on recipes and enjoy tastier meals at home. Get cooking!


Sweet Potato Chips with Garlic Aioli

Sweet Potato Chips with Garlic Aioli

Ingredients

  • 2 medium sized sweet potatoes, thinly sliced
  • 1 egg white
  • 1 tablespoon freshly chopped cilantro
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon freshly chopped cilantro
  • 1 teaspoon freshly minced garlic
  • 1-2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
  • kosher salt to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a couple baking sheets with Reynolds Parchment Paper
  2. Mix the egg white, 1 tablespoon freshly chopped cilantro, 2 teaspoons dried oregano, and 2 teaspoons kosher salt in a large bowl. Thinly slice the sweet potatoes using a food processor or mandolin and add the sliced potatoes to the egg white mixture. Toss to coat each potato slice evenly.
  3. Place the potatoes onto the parchment lined baking sheets in a single layer. You want to make sure you leave space around each chip so you don't crowd them. Leaving space between the chips will help them to get a little more crispy. If you crowd them they will steam and be soggy. If you have a rack, you can put the chips directly on the rack and they will crisp up more for you. I like to put a foil lined baking sheet below the rack to catch any drips.
  4. Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes. Flip each chip over and bake 10-15 minutes more. Be sure to watch them so they don't burn. Turn off the oven and leave them in there for another 15 minutes.
  5. While the chips are baking make the dip by combining 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon freshly chopped cilantro, 1 teaspoon freshly minced garlic, 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice, 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar, and salt to taste. Mix it well to combine and give it a taste. Adjust the flavors as needed.

  10. What about using corn starch to make them crisp? Is that necessary?

    ReplyDelete

    1. Sorry, I have never used corn starch on potatoes, so I am not able to help with that. The best thing you can do to get crispy oven baked sweet potato chips or fries is to cook them on an oven-safe rack. They'll still be good if you don't have a rack though :). Thanks for stopping by! ~Marion

  12. I am very allergic to eggs. What can I substitute the egg white with? Looks wonderful!

    1. Deborah, I haven't tried using oil in place of the egg white, but that should work just fine. I suggest a 1/2 to 1 tablespoon of oil. You just want to coat the chips and help the seasonings stick. I hope that helps! ~Marion
