Crispy Grilled Potato Chips Recipe

Introduction

These crispy, golden potato chips are made entirely on the Arteflame grill, giving them a rich flavor and perfect crunch. Using the flat cooktop of the grill ensures even cooking, while the butter adds a delicious richness to every bite. Whether you're grilling steaks or burgers, these homemade chips are the perfect side for any meal.

Ingredients

  • 4 large russet potatoes, thinly sliced (use a mandoline for even slices)
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika or your favorite seasoning blend (optional)
  • Chopped herbs for garnish (optional)

Instructions

1. Fire Up the Arteflame Grill

Begin by firing up the Arteflame grill. Pour vegetable oil on three paper napkins and place them in the grill. Stack firewood over the napkins, light the grill, and let it heat up for about 20 minutes until the cooktop is hot and ready.

2. Prep the Potatoes

While the grill is heating, thinly slice the russet potatoes. Aim for uniform slices, about 1/8-inch thick, so they cook evenly. Pat the slices dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture—this step is key to achieving crispiness.

3. Butter the Grill

Once the Arteflame is ready, melt the butter and brush a generous amount over the flat cooktop near the center, where it's hotter. The butter will add richness and prevent sticking.

4. Cook the Potato Slices

Place the potato slices on the hot flat-top cooktop in a single layer. The hotter areas near the center will sear the slices to golden perfection, while the cooler outer areas will let them finish cooking slowly without burning. Let them cook for 3-5 minutes on each side, flipping once golden brown and crispy.

5. Season the Chips

As the chips finish cooking, sprinkle them with salt, freshly ground black pepper, and smoked paprika (or your preferred seasoning). Adjust them around the cooktop if needed, using the cooler edges to keep them warm without overcooking.

6. Remove and Serve

Once the potato chips are crisp and golden, remove them from the grill and place them on a platter. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired, and serve immediately for the best texture.

Tips

  • Slice Evenly: Using a mandoline will ensure your potato slices are uniform, which is crucial for even cooking.
  • Don’t Crowd the Grill: Lay the potato slices in a single layer to prevent steaming and ensure they become crispy.
  • Season Right Away: Always season the chips while they're still warm to help the seasoning stick better.

Conclusion

With the Arteflame grill, you can achieve crispy, homemade potato chips with that perfect balance of crunch and seasoning. Serve them alongside burgers, sandwiches, or grilled meats for a tasty side dish that everyone will love.
