BHA & BHT Free Easy Ginger Scallion Potato Chips

Store-bought chips are one of the sneakiest sources of synthetic preservatives like BHA and BHT, often buried in the fine print of ingredient labels or hiding in the oils used during frying. Making your own at home puts you fully in control of every single thing that goes into the bag — or in this case, the bowl. These oven-baked potato chips start with thin-sliced russet potatoes tossed in garlic-infused oil and freshly grated ginger, then finished with a scatter of bright scallion greens and an optional drizzle of toasted sesame oil for a nutty, aromatic kick. The flavor is bold and a little unexpected — savory, gingery, and just fragrant enough to feel special without being fussy. The key to getting that satisfying crunch is patting the potato slices completely dry before they hit the oven, then giving them enough time to turn golden and rigid on the pan. They crisp up even more as they cool, so if you can resist eating them straight from the baking sheet, spreading them on a wire rack pays off. Clean ingredients, real flavor, and zero label anxiety — that's a snack worth making.
