These Viral Onion Ring Chips are a crispy, flavorful snack featuring thinly sliced yellow onions baked atop a layer of parmesan cheese. Coated with avocado oil and seasoned with a blend of paprika, garlic powder, and sea salt, these chips offer a deliciously addictive alternative to traditional onion rings, perfect for snacking or serving as a crunchy appetizer.

Ingredients

Scale

Cheese

  • 8 ounces parmesan cheese (freshly grated)

Vegetables

  • 3 medium yellow onions (very thinly sliced, about 1/6 inch)

Oils & Spices

  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil
  • 2 teaspoons paprika (or to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt (or to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder (or to taste)
  • ½ teaspoon seasoning salt (or to taste)
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper (or to taste)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
  2. Prepare the parmesan base: Grate 8 ounces of fresh parmesan cheese and evenly spread it in a thin layer over the prepared parchment paper on the baking sheet.
  3. Slice the onions: Thinly slice 3 medium yellow onions about 1/6 inch thick; using a mandolin slicer will ensure uniform thin slices for even baking. Lay the onion slices in a single layer over the parmesan cheese.
  4. Brush with oil: Coat the onion slices evenly by brushing them with 2 tablespoons of avocado oil, which helps them crisp up and adds a smooth flavor.
  5. Season: Sprinkle 2 teaspoons paprika, 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon seasoning salt, and ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper over the onions to infuse bold and savory flavors.
  6. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the onions are golden brown and crispy.
  7. Cool and serve: Remove from the oven and let the chips cool on the pan for about 10 minutes to harden and crisp further. Then break into bite-sized pieces and enjoy your crunchy onion ring chips.

Notes

  • Using a mandolin slicer helps achieve uniform onion slices, which are essential for even baking and crispiness.
  • Adjust seasoning quantities to your taste preference, especially the salt and paprika.
  • Allow the chips to cool thoroughly on the baking sheet to ensure they crisp up properly before breaking them into pieces.
  • Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days to maintain crispness.
  • This recipe can be a great low-carb and gluten-free snack option.
