Ingredients
Scale
Potatoes:
4 large Yukon gold or russet potatoes (peeled)
Oregano Salt Mixture:
3 tablespoons olive oil (plus more for brushing)
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Optional Garnish:
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh oregano
Flaky salt for garnish
Instructions
Preheat Oven: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Slice Potatoes: Thinly slice potatoes using a mandoline or sharp knife (about 1/8-inch thick).
Prepare Oregano Salt: In a small bowl, mix sea salt, dried oregano, and black pepper.
Arrange Potatoes: Brush a large baking dish or ovenproof skillet with olive oil. Arrange potato slices vertically in overlapping rows. Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with oregano salt.
Bake: Bake for 55–65 minutes until golden and crispy. Optionally brush with more oil for extra crispiness halfway through.
Finish: Sprinkle with fresh oregano and flaky salt. Serve hot as a side or appetizer.
Notes
For added flavor, consider adding minced garlic or Parmesan between the potato layers.
Using a cast-iron skillet can result in evenly crispy edges.
