Crunchy, golden, and loaded with real herb flavor, these baked plantain chips are the kind of snack that disappears fast — especially when you're serving four people who've been missing something satisfying to reach for. Green plantains get tossed in melted coconut oil with minced garlic, fresh rosemary, fresh thyme, and a touch of turmeric before going into a hot oven, so every chip carries serious savory depth. The key is slicing them paper-thin and keeping them in a single layer, which lets the oven do its job and delivers that irresistible crunch without any frying. Most store-bought chips are off the table when you're navigating strict elimination protocols, but these come together with a short, clean ingredient list that checks every box. Coconut oil replaces seed or vegetable oils, and the seasoning relies entirely on whole herbs and spices — nothing processed, nothing hidden. A final scatter of fresh parsley adds a bright finish that makes them feel a little fancy without any extra effort. Let them cool on a wire rack for a few minutes before serving and watch them crisp up even further right before your eyes.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
Using a mandoline set to 1/16-inch thickness, or a sharp knife, slice the peeled plantains into rounds as uniformly thin as possible — aim for about 1/16 to 1/8 inch. Uniform thickness is key; thicker slices will not crisp fully.
