Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Grind onion powder, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, and salt in spice mill until red pepper flakes are finely ground. Transfer to a small bowl and set aside.
- Spread out potato chips on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake, tossing halfway through, until deep golden brown, about 5 minutes.
- Transfer potato chips to a large bowl and drizzle with oil. Sprinkle reserved spice mixture over and add two-thirds of dill. Finely zest lemon over chips. Sprinkle with lots of black pepper and toss to coat (do all this while the chips are still warm so they absorb the flavors of the spice mixture). Taste and season with more salt if needed.
- Transfer chips to a platter and top with remaining dill and more black pepper.

Steps:
- French Onion Dip: To dice onions, trim the top and bottom, slice in half lengthwise, and discard skin. Lay the flat sides down and make vertical cuts, just short of the root to keep the onion intact. Stand the onion up and make several slices perpendicular to your first cuts, creating a grid that will result in an even dice. Place the onion flat side down again and slice across into a uniform dice. Place diced onions into a bowl and set aside.
- In a medium skillet over high heat, melt the butter. Then add diced onions and a generous pinch of salt. Stir and sauté until onions begin to sweat, about 3-5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until onions are golden brown and caramelized, 20-30 minutes. Set aside to cool, 10-15 minutes. (Makes ½-⅔ cup caramelized onions.)Meanwhile, start the potato chips.
- In a large, heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, add enough oil to fill halfway. (You may not need all of the oil.) Clip a deep fry thermometer onto the side of the pot and heat oil to 350 F. Assemble the dip: Stir lemon juice into the cooled caramelized onions. Add ½ cup of the onions and a pinch of cayenne to the crème fraîche, then stir to combine; add a pinch of salt. Stir, taste, and adjust seasoning; finish with chives and set aside.
- Potato chips: Line a large bowl with two layers of paper towel to drain the chips. Trim and discard the ends of each potato. Adjust mandoline setting to 1/16-inch thick (about the thickness of a dime), then carefully slice the potatoes. Quickly but gently place ⅓ of the potato slices into the oil, one by one; spreading them out will help them fry flat and prevent sticking. (Since the chips fry so quickly, it's useful to have a second person add slices at the same time, to encourage even cooking in larger batches.) Stir and flip the potatoes with the spider strainer to separate. Then let the potatoes fry, stirring, separating, and flipping the chips as needed, and adjusting the heat to keep the temperature at 350 degrees F. Chips are done when they're a deep golden color, 4-6 minutes.
- Transfer the chips to the paper towel-lined bowl. While the chips are still hot, sprinkle with salt while shaking to bowl to season evenly. (Seasoning and tossing immediately after frying will help chips dry while absorbing salt.) Repeat in two batches with remaining potatoes. Serve with dip.

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: For the best results, use a variety of potatoes that are all relatively the same size and shape. This will help them cook evenly.
- Slice the potatoes thinly: The thinner the potato slices, the crispier the chips will be. Use a mandoline or a sharp knife to slice the potatoes as thinly as possible.
- Soak the potato slices in water: This step helps to remove the starch from the potatoes, which will help them crisp up in the oven. Soak the potato slices in cold water for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
- Dry the potato slices thoroughly: Before baking the potato chips, make sure to dry them thoroughly with paper towels. This will help them crisp up evenly.
- Season the potato chips: Before baking, season the potato chips with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings. You can also add a drizzle of olive oil to help them crisp up.
- Bake the potato chips at a high temperature: The higher the oven temperature, the crispier the potato chips will be. Bake the potato chips at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
