Potato chips are the natural accompaniment to our Tuna Nicoise Sandwiches; ours are sliced russets that are baked, not fried.

Ingredients

  • Vegetable-oil cooking spray

  • 2 pounds russet potatoes, cut into ¼-inch-thick slices

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

  • Coarse salt

  • Pinch of cayenne pepper

  • Freshly ground pepper

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly coat 2 rimmed baking sheets with cooking spray; set aside. Put potatoes, oil, 1 tablespoon salt, and the cayenne in a large bowl; season with pepper. Toss to combine.

  2. Arrange potato slices on prepared baking sheets, spacing them 1/4 inch apart. Bake, rotating sheets halfway through, until potatoes are crisp and golden brown, about 30 minutes. Spread out potatoes on parchment paper; let dry 5 minutes. Sprinkle with salt, if desired.
