Watching the incredibly cute video below reminded me that kale chips were on my baking to-do list.
Knowing that I’d want a spicier chip, I added a hefty amount of Sriracha.
Foodfash Sriracha Kale Chips
8 ounces of kale, de-spined and broken into bite sized pieces
2 tablespoons of olive oil
2 tablespoons of Sriracha
salt to taste
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix the olive oil and Sriracha in a small bowl. Dry the kale completely and then drizzle the olive oil and Sriracha mix over the kale. Use your hands to massage the kale, making sure that every piece has been coated. Place the kale on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet and bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until the kale is crispy.
The kale chips were exactly what I was expecting taste-wise: crispy, spicy goodness. However, I did not anticipate how addictive they’d be. I placed the bowl of chips next to me as I was editing photos and by the time I was finished with the photos, the kale chips were finished as well. Oops!
Do you find kale chips addictive? Have you tried any surprisingly good flavor combos?
Did you really just combine my favourite things and make a dish? Sriracha AND kale chips? OH YES.
I did! Hope you enjoy!
oh wow sriracha and kale. two of my favorite things. Sounds awesome!
sriracha is the love of my life. Glad it’s yours, too : )
Oh my. These are happening in my kitchen very soon! YUM!
Kale and Sriracha were just made for each other!
Hi Kristen, I am recuperating from bilateral knee surgery but as soon as I can get around I am going to try the Kale Chips. I use kale in my protein shake daily and enjoy making salads with it too. Where would I get Sraracha? Is it very spicy? Jean
I hope that you have a quick recovery! You should be able to get sriracha in the Asian aisle at Publix and it’s pretty spicy. You may want to try them without sriracha first or use a hot sauce that you’re used to. Again, hope your knee feels better soon!
