Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 Celsius). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Cut the bottom off the garlic cloves, and peel off the skin. Leave the cloves as undamaged and intact as possible.

Step 3

Slice the garlic cloves very thinly from top to bottom. Aim to get about 8 to 10 slices from each clove of garlic.

Step 4

Drizzle the parchment paper with olive oil, and spread it out by hand to coat the paper. This will also get your hand oily, which is perfect; use your oily hand to make sure each slice of garlic is coated in oil before arranging in a single layer on the oiled parchment paper.

Step 5

Sprinkle the garlic slices with sea salt.

Step 6

Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 Celsius) until golden, about 10 minutes. Keep a close eye on the garlic chips, because they’ll go from “almost done” to “completely burned” pretty quickly.
