Equipment

  • Oven
  • Mandoline
  • Baking Sheet
  • Parchment Paper
  • Large Bowl
  • Small Bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 2 large sweet potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh herbs (such as dill, parsley, or chives)

Instructions
 

Preparing the Sweet Potato Chips

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  • Wash and dry the sweet potatoes thoroughly. Using a mandoline or a sharp knife, slice the sweet potatoes as thinly and evenly as possible—about 1/8 inch thick. The thinner the slices, the crispier the chips will be.
  • In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato slices with olive oil, salt, paprika, and garlic powder until all slices are evenly coated.
  • Arrange the slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets, making sure they don’t overlap. Overlapping will cause them to steam rather than crisp.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping the chips halfway through. Keep a close eye towards the end to avoid burning, as thinner slices can crisp quickly. The chips should be golden and crispy when done.
  • Remove from the oven and let the chips cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes—they will continue to crisp as they cool.

Making the Herb Yogurt Dip

  • In a small bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and chopped fresh herbs.
  • Mix well until smooth and creamy. Adjust the seasoning with salt if needed.
  • Chill the dip in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld.

Serving

  • Serve the sweet potato chips alongside the herb yogurt dip for a delightful pairing. The creamy, tangy dip balances the smoky, slightly sweet chips perfectly.

Notes

  • Use a mandoline slicer for evenly thin sweet potato slices to ensure crispiness.
  • Don’t overcrowd the baking sheets to prevent soggy chips.
  • Let the chips cool on the baking sheet after baking to allow them to crisp up fully.
  • Try variations by adding cinnamon and nutmeg for fall flavors or fresh basil for summer.
  • Store chips in an airtight container with paper towels for up to 2 days, but best enjoyed fresh.
