Equipment

Baking sheet
Parchment paper
Large Bowl
Whisk
Measuring cups and spoons

Ingredients

1 large bunch kale about 8 ounces or 225 grams, washed and dried
2 tbsp olive oil 30 ml
3 cloves garlic minced
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese about 1.75 ounces or 50 grams
¼ tsp sea salt 1.5 grams
¼ tsp black pepper 0.5 grams

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Remove the stems and tear the kale leaves into bite-sized pieces.
In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil and minced garlic.
Add the kale pieces to the bowl and massage them with the garlic-infused olive oil until thoroughly coated.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese, sea salt, and black pepper over the kale, then toss to ensure each piece is evenly covered.
Arrange the kale pieces in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, taking care not to overcrowd them.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, gently turn the kale chips over and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until crisp and golden.
Remove from the oven and let the kale chips cool slightly; they will continue to crisp up as they cool.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.

Notes

For crispier chips, make sure the kale is thoroughly dried before baking.

Nutritional values are approximate and may vary depending on the actual size and freshness of kale and type of Parmesan cheese used.

For a vegan version, substitute the Parmesan cheese with nutritional yeast, adjusting the amount to taste.
