Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large yellow onions, thinly sliced
- 1 ½ cups finely grated parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) or air fryer to 370°F (188°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even crisping.
- In a large bowl, toss the thinly sliced onions with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt. Then, coat the onion slices thoroughly with the grated parmesan cheese, ensuring an even layer.
- Arrange the coated onion slices in a single layer on the parchment-lined baking tray or air fryer basket. Make sure they do not overlap to allow for the best crisping.
- Press the onion slices lightly to help the cheese adhere properly and the slices to hold their chip shape.
- Bake the chips in the preheated oven for 18 to 22 minutes or air fry for 10 to 12 minutes. Cook until the chips turn golden brown and become crisp.
- Remove the chips from the heat and transfer them onto a cooling rack. Allow them to cool for 5 to 10 minutes so they crisp up fully.
- Serve the Parmesan Onion Ring Chips warm with your favorite dip or enjoy them as a standalone savory crunchy snack.
