KALE CRISPS WITH SEA SALT AND LEMON



Kale Crisps with Sea Salt and Lemon image

At the Blue Hill at Stone Barns farm, Tuscan kale is picked when it's young. The leaves are tender enough that they can be roasted and eaten whole. This likely won't be the case with most kale found at farm stands and in grocery stores, so we recommend slicing the leaves into ribbons.

Time 50m

Yield Serves 12 to 15

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 pound Tuscan kale (1 to 2 bunches), thick stems removed and leaves sliced crosswise into 2-inch ribbons
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Finely grated zest of 1 lemon
Flaked sea salt or coarse salt, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Toss kale with oil, and spread in a single layer on each of 2 rimmed baking sheets. Bake, tossing kale and rotating sheets halfway through, until crisp, about 15 minutes. Let cool on sheets. Sprinkle with lemon zest and salt, and toss to coat.

Tips for Making Crispy Tuscan Kale Chips:

  • Choose the right kale. Look for kale that is dark green and has firm, crispy leaves. Avoid kale that is wilted or has yellow or brown spots.
  • Wash and dry the kale thoroughly. This will help to remove any dirt or debris and prevent the kale chips from becoming soggy.
  • Remove the stems from the kale leaves. This will make the kale chips easier to eat and will help them to crisp up evenly.
  • Tear the kale leaves into bite-sized pieces. This will help the kale chips to cook evenly and will make them easier to eat.
  • Toss the kale leaves with olive oil, salt, and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or chili powder.
  • Spread the kale leaves in a single layer on a baking sheet. Make sure that the kale leaves are not touching each other, as this will prevent them from crisping up evenly.
  • Bake the kale chips at a high temperature until they are crispy. The exact baking time will depend on the thickness of the kale leaves and your oven, but it should take about 10-15 minutes.
  • Let the kale chips cool before serving. This will help them to become crispy and will make them easier to handle.

Conclusion:

Kale chips are a healthy and delicious snack that are easy to make at home. By following these tips, you can make crispy Tuscan kale chips that are sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a healthy snack, give kale chips a try!
