Ingredients

Vegetable-oil cooking spray

2 pounds russet potatoes, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices

3 tablespoons olive oil

Coarse salt

Pinch of cayenne pepper

Freshly ground pepper

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly coat 2 rimmed baking sheets with cooking spray; set aside. Put potatoes, oil, 1 tablespoon salt, and the cayenne in a large bowl; season with pepper. Toss to combine.

Arrange potato slices on prepared baking sheets, spacing them 1/4 inch apart. Bake, rotating sheets halfway through, until potatoes are crisp and golden brown, about 30 minutes. Spread out potatoes on parchment paper; let dry 5 minutes. Sprinkle with salt, if desired.
