Kale

Rinse and dry the kale. Make sure kales are dry, otherwise, instead of being crispy and crunchy, it might come out chewy.

Pull the kale leaves from the stem; discard the stem. Tear into bite-size pieces. 

Transfer the leaves to a medium-size mixing bowl and toss with the oil and rub to evenly coat each leaf.

Arrange the kale leaves in a single layer on a baking sheet. You don’t want to overcrowd the pans; otherwise the kale won’t turn out as crispy.

Bake for 12 minutes, or until crisp . Let cool, then sprinkle with seasoned salt.

Best eaten within 24 hours, stored in a paper bag.

Note: It is important to make sure the entire Kale is dry or it will cook unevenly in the oven causing undercooked or burnt kale.
