Kale Chips

From our SuperFoods collection, Colavita Extra Virgin Olive Oil is massaged into kale leaves with some light seasoning. Slowly baked, the kale is transformed into chips, making a healthy snack or salad topping.

 1 large bunch kale, tough stems removed, leaves torn into pieces
 1 tbsp Colavita Extra Virgin Olive Oil
 ¼ tsp sea salt
 1 tsp chili powder

1

Position oven racks in upper third and center of oven; preheat to 400°F.

2

Rinse the kale thoroughly and pat dry. Place the kale in a large bowl and drizzle the Colavita Extra Virgin Olive Oil and sprinkle with salt and chili powder.

3

Massage the oil and spices onto the kale leaves to evenly coat.

4

Place the seasoned kale leaves on a large baking sheet lined with foil, making sure the leaves don’t overlap. If all the kale leaves don’t fit, you can use a second baking sheet, or bake the leaves in batches.

5

Bake until most leaves are crisp, rotating the baking sheets halfway through the cooking process, 8 to 12 minutes total, but keep an eye on the delicate leaves so they don’t burn.
