Air Fryer Sliced Potatoes

Ingredients

• 4 medium potatoes, thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes

Wash and scrub the potatoes well. Slice them into thin, even rounds about ⅛-inch thick. Pat them dry with paper towels.

Step 2: Season

Place the sliced potatoes in a large bowl. Add olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss until all slices are evenly coated.

Step 3: Preheat the Air Fryer

Preheat the air fryer to 380°F (193°C) for 3 minutes.

Step 4: Arrange the Potatoes

Place the potato slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding for the best crispiness.

Step 5: Air Fry

Cook for 15–18 minutes, shaking the basket or flipping the slices halfway through cooking. Continue cooking until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy around the edges.

Step 6: Garnish and Serve

Transfer the potatoes to a serving plate. Sprinkle with fresh parsley if desired and serve immediately.
