Ingredients
- 2 (10-ounce) bags salted potato chips (the best-quality plain salted kettle potato chips)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons turbinado sugar (such as Sugar in the Raw)
- 1/2 tablespoon coarse sea salt (preferably gray salt)
- 2 tablespoons smoky paprika
- 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Pinch cayenne pepper (optional
How to Make
-
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 300°F (149°C).
-
Step 2: Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
-
Step 3: Place the chips on the baking sheets and scatter in a single layer. Bake until hot, about 5 minutes. When you can smell the chips, it’s time to take them out of the oven.
-
Step 4: While the chips are baking, dump the sugar and salt in a blender or spice grinder or mini food processor and process until finely ground but not powdery. In a small bowl mix the sugar, salt, paprika, garlic powder and cayenne pepper.
-
Step 5: As soon as you pull the chips from the oven, carefully dump them into a bowl. Pour the spice mix into a sieve, sprinkle it over the hot chips, and gently toss the chips to coat them with the spices, being careful not to break any.
-
Step 6: Serve the chips warm or at room temperature.
