Crispy Oven Roasted Kale Food

ROASTED KALE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper (or two if you're doubling the recipe). Chop the kale. In a large bowl, mix the kale with the olive oil, garlic power, kosher salt, and black pepper. Place the kale leaves onto the baking sheet in a single layer.
• Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast for 5 minutes. Remove the tray, stir and roast another 2 minutes. Remove the tray one more time, stir, and roast 2 minutes more until wilted and crispy on the edges. Eat immediately, or you can refrigerate up to 1 week and add to meals throughout the week.

CRISPY OVEN-ROASTED KALE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, toss the kale with the olive oil and a few pinches of salt. Spread out the kale on a large baking sheet; the kale can be piled up a bit. Bake until a little crispy on the edges but still tender, about 20 minutes.
• Remove the kale from the oven. Squeeze lime juice over the top, grate some Parmesan and serve warm.

BAKED KALE CHIPS

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a non insulated cookie sheet with parchment paper.
• With a knife or kitchen shears carefully remove the leaves from the thick stems and tear into bite size pieces. Wash and thoroughly dry kale with a salad spinner. Drizzle kale with olive oil and sprinkle with seasoning salt.
• Bake until the edges brown but are not burnt, 10 to 15 minutes.

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• Remove the ribs from the kale and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Lay on a baking sheet and toss with the olive oil and salt. Bake until crisp, turning the leaves halfway through, about 20 minutes. Serve as finger food.

SPICED KALE CRISPS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 150C/130C fan/gas 2 and line 2 baking trays with baking parchment. Wash the kale and dry thoroughly. Place in a large bowl, tearing any large leaves into smaller pieces. Drizzle over the oil, then massage into the kale. Sprinkle over the ras el hanout and some sea salt, mix well, then tip onto the trays and spread out in a single layer. Bake for 18-22 mins or until crisp but still green, then leave to cool for a few mins.

• Place kale in a medium bowl. Toss with olive oil, garlic and salt, making sure leaves are well coated with oil. Spread evenly across a large baking sheet.
• Bake, tossing once or twice, until leaves are crispy but not burned, about 5 minutes. Serve as is as a finger food or snack, or top with poached eggs as a breakfast or lunch dish.
