Easy Sriracha Kale Chips Recipe

Ok, I know what you’re thinking… someone else is talking about kale chips! I too have heard so much talk about kale chips that I caved in and finally gave it a try. I must say, they are as addictive as potato chips. I’m not a big fan of super salty foods so I decided to try adding sriracha—it was amazing! I’m a big fan of sriracha and put it on just about anything so I thought why not kale chips?

They are extremely easy to make and so delicious. I thought there was just a ton of hype going on about these chips, but everyone was right, they are that tasty!

If you’re having friends over and need a quick appetizer (or just want to snack on something, like I did), give these a try!

The chilies from the sriracha stick to the greens perfectly adding so much flavor.

Sriracha Kale Chips Recipe

Ingredients:
• One bunch of kale (I used Lacinato kale, get whatever is fresh/your favorite)
• 1 tbs. olive oil
• 1 tbs. sriracha
• Coarse salt (kosher or sea salt) to taste

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 300º. Using a knife, remove the tough center stems of the kate. Then cut into smaller bite-size pieces.
2. In a large bowl, whisk olive oil and sriracha. Even though this seems like it’s not enoght to coat the leaves, it definitely is! If you add too much oil, the kale won’t be crispy and chip-like. Add the kale pieces and toss to coat.
3. Spread the kale out on a large baking sheet. Season with salt, to taste. Bake for about 35 minutes, tossing every 10 minutes. Keep an eye on it, as the leaves can burn. Then enjoy!
