Wash and dry your kale completely. I find it’s easier to wash the large pieces of kale before you cut them up. If you don’t dry your kale completely, it will not crisp up as nicely in the oven! 2. Take a pair of kitchen shears or a knife and cut the leaves off of the large middle stem. The middle rib is too tough to roast and is the most bitter part of kale as well. 3. Tear or cut the kale into pieces around 2 inches long. 4. Place the kale into a large bowl then drizzle the olive oil over it. I work the olive oil in using my hands instead of tossing it. Curly kale has more nooks and crannies than the other kale does, so I make sure that it’s coated completely. Too much oil can cause limp kale, but too little and you’re not crisping it up! 5. Place in a single layer on a baking sheet and sprinkle with salt. I love mine good and salty, you may have to start at 1/2 tsp and work your way up to what you prefer. 6. Bake in a 300-degree oven for 10-15 minutes. Now, here’s where it gets tricky. This time is going to completely depend on the type of oven you have, how good the air circulates in it, how correct the heat temperature is. I suggest checking these at around the 8-minute mark and watching them closely. Mine took close to 15 minutes to dry out and crisp up, your kale chips might take more or less.
