Crispy, smoky, and deeply satisfying, these oven-baked potato chips hit every snack craving without the gut-irritating ingredients hiding in most store-bought bags. The secret to keeping this recipe digestive-system-friendly is garlic-infused oil, which delivers all that rich, savory garlic flavor while leaving behind the high-FODMAP compounds that can cause trouble — so you get the taste without the aftermath. Russet potatoes are sliced paper-thin, blotted dry, and baked on a wire rack so hot air circulates all around each chip, giving you that satisfying crunch you'd expect from a deep-fried version. Smoked paprika does the heavy lifting on flavor, adding a warm, slightly earthy depth that makes these chips genuinely hard to stop eating. A pinch of cayenne is optional, so you can dial the heat up or down depending on your tolerance. They come out of the oven golden at the edges and firm up beautifully as they cool, which means patience is the only real skill required here. Whether you're snacking solo or setting out a bowl for guests, these chips are proof that eating with your gut in mind doesn't mean settling for less.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Set a wire rack on a large baking sheet and lightly coat the rack with cooking spray or a thin brush of garlic-infused oil.
Using a mandoline or a sharp knife, slice the potatoes as thin as possible — about 1/16 inch (1–2 mm). Lay the slices in a single layer on paper towels, top with more paper towels, and press firmly to blot away as much surface moisture as possible.
