Ingredients
- 1 lb Curly Kale
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 1/2 tsp Sea salt
- 2 tbsp Lemon juice
- 2 tsp Lemon zest
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 4 tsp Lime juice
- 2 tsp Chili powder
- 4 tsp Taco Seasoning
Instructions
- Wash kale and dry thoroughly. Kale chips take longer to crisp if not dried well.
- Slice around the tough stem of each kale leaf with a sharp knife; discard stem. Roughly chop kale into bite-sized pieces.
- Place kale in a large mixing bowl. Add olive oil and salt. For flavored chips, add other chosen ingredients now. Toss and gently massage kale to ensure each leaf is well coated.
- Preheat air fryer to 325°F (163°C).
- Place kale in the air fryer basket (cook in 2 batches if needed). Cook for 3 minutes, shake basket, then cook for another 2-3 minutes until crispy and dried out.
- For specific flavors like lemon garlic, chili lime, or taco, add an extra 1-2 minutes of cooking time. For BBQ flavor, add an extra 3-4 minutes.
