Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees (200 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with paper towels.
Step 2
Using a mandoline, slice potatoes on the thinnest setting, about 1/8-inch thick. Place slices on the paper towel-lined baking sheets.
Step 3
Place a layer of paper towels over the potato slices. Let stand 5 minutes. Press down on paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Step 4
Discard paper towels. Place potato slices in a large bowl. Add oil and salt. Gently stir to combine.
Step 5
Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Divide potato slices between baking sheets in an even layer.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Using tongs, flip each chip over. Bake until golden, about 10 minutes more.
Step 7
Remove chips from the oven and cool for 5 minutes; they will become more crisp as they cool.
