Ingredients
Onion Ring Chips
- 1 onion, sliced into 1/4 inch rounds
- 1 cup Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, grated
- 1 drizzle olive oil (about 1 tablespoon)
- Greek seasoning, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Prepare onion rings: Slice the onion into 1/4 inch thick rounds using a sharp knife or mandoline for even thickness. Separate the rounds into individual rings.
- Arrange onion and cheese: Spread an even layer of grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese on the prepared baking sheet. Next, carefully lay out each onion ring right next to each other on top of the cheese layer, ensuring they are touching but not overlapping.
- Season and oil: Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over each onion ring and sprinkle with Greek seasoning to taste for a flavorful kick.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the onion rings turn golden and crispy.
- Cool and serve: Remove from oven and allow the chips to cool for about 10 minutes so they crisp up further. Serve with your favorite dips such as sour cream, cilantro lime crema, French onion dip, or homemade tzatziki.
Notes
- Use a sharp knife or mandoline to ensure uniform onion slices for even cooking.
- Watch closely in the last 5 minutes to prevent burning as cheese can brown quickly.
- For extra crispiness, consider flipping the chips halfway through baking.
- These chips are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
- Adjust Greek seasoning amounts based on your flavor preference.
