Description

These Air Fryer Sliced Potatoes are the ultimate quick and crispy side dish. Made with just a handful of pantry ingredients, these golden potato rounds come out perfectly tender inside and crispy on the edges. Whether you’re pairing them with dinner or snacking with dip, this easy air fryer potato recipe is sure to become a favorite.


Ingredients

  • 23 medium Russet or Yukon Gold potatoes
  • 12 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Optional: fresh chopped parsley, grated Parmesan, dipping sauce for serving

Instructions

  1. Wash and dry potatoes. Slice into ⅛–¼-inch rounds using a knife or mandoline.

  2. In a large bowl, toss potato slices with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.

  3. Preheat air fryer to 375°F (190°C), if required by your model.

  4. Arrange slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Work in batches if needed.

  5. Air fry for 12–15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.

  6. Garnish with herbs or Parmesan, and serve hot with your favorite dip.


Notes

  • Russet potatoes = crispier edges; Yukon Gold = creamier center.
  • Soak slices in cold water for 30 minutes for extra crispiness. Dry well before cooking.
  • Ranch seasoning, taco spice, or Cajun blends add bold flavor variations.
  • Add sliced onions for extra sweetness and depth.
  • Serve with garlic aioli, spicy mayo, or sour cream for dipping.
