How to Make Kale Chips - Healthy Snack
Hello and welcome to In the Kitchen with Matt, I am your host Matt Taylor, Today I am going
to teach you how to make a healthy snack, Kale chips.
I really like Kale, It is super healthy for you, it is really cheap, I got a bunch of
Kale at the supermarket for ninety-nine cents.
So this is a cheap quick little snack to make.
So first what we are going to do is we are going to preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Alright, and now, what I did is a washed the Kale and I dried it with a paper towel.
And you want to make sure it is pretty dry so the moisture doesn't effect it when it
is in the oven.
And now what we are going to do is we are going to remove the kale leaf from its stem.
Super easy, you just grab it by its stem and you grab the leafs at the base and you just
pull like this, and there it goes, it comes right off.
And I am going to put this right here in the corner, set this aside.
And then what we are going to take our kale leaf here and we are going to take little
pieces off.
Like that, and lay them out flat.
And these are just bite sized, and they are going to shrink a bit when they are baking.
We will do another one here.
The stem is really bitter, so you don't want the stem in there.
And what we want to do is we only want one layer here, of the Kale.
So you can do a couple batches if you want.
Ok now what we are going to do is take some olive oil, and just drizzle a little bit all
over the Kale, and we are going to mix it in all together with our hands.
We don't want to use too much oil, just a little bit, drizzle a little bit on there,
its good enough, then we will grab the kale like this, and just massage it all together
and get the oil all over it.
And then we are going to spread it out flat again.
And now we are going to bake it in the over for a total of 15 to 20 minutes, and half
way through so the 8 to 10 minute mark we are going to flip them to the other side,
so it is nice and uniform.
We will go on to that step.
Ok these are done, and this is how they look when they come out of the oven.
Alright and now for the break down.
These Kale chips cost about a dollar and I would say 5 cents.
The kale was 99 cents and it was about 5 cents, a couple cents, or whatever for the oil that
I used and then I am going to use a little bit of salt, so super cheap.
Now what I am going to do is take some salt and I am just going to barely put some salt
on there, just like that, not too much, and then, you can eat them right off of there,
but I am going to take them and put them in this bowl right here, you can hear how nice
and crispy they sound.
Set them aside, and you can add other flavors if you want.
You can add parmesan cheese, garlic powder, ranch flavored powder, whatever flavor that
you want.
So I cam going to dive into one of these.
MMM, really crispy, not an overly strong kale flavor, super good, super cheap.
