– 4 medium-sized potatoes (Russet or Yukon Gold recommended)

Creating Air Fryer Sliced Potatoes is straightforward when you follow these easy steps:
1. Prep the Potatoes: Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. You can peel them if you prefer, but leaving the skin on adds extra texture and nutrients.
2. Slice the Potatoes: Cut the potatoes into even slices, about ¼ inch thick. This ensures they cook evenly in the air fryer.
3. Season the Potatoes: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss until well coated.
4. Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and allow it to preheat for a few minutes.
5. Arrange the Slices: Place the seasoned potato slices in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Avoid overcrowding to ensure even cooking.
6. Air Fry: Cook the potato slices for 10 minutes, then flip them with tongs or a spatula for even cooking.
7. Continue Cooking: Air fry for an additional 10-15 minutes or until they are golden brown and crisp. Cooking time will vary based on thickness.
8. Check for Doneness: Ensure the potatoes are cooked through and crispy to your liking. Cook a few extra minutes if needed.
9. Remove and Garnish: Carefully remove the sliced potatoes and transfer them to a serving platter. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
10. Enjoy: Serve the Air Fryer Sliced Potatoes warm, paired with your favorite dipping sauce or alongside your main course.
These simple steps will guide you effortlessly in creating these delightful potatoes!
