I keep hearing how great kale chips are, so I tried to make some last year during kale season (which lasts for about six months around my house). Scorched leaves is what I got. Next time, I thought, I'll watch the timing more carefully.
The season is approaching again and I just saw this in a friend's Facebook post. Sounds like it's worth a try:
Microwaved Kale
- Wash and dry the kale leaves.
- Remove the large stems and tear the leaves into bite-sized pieces.
- Toss with a small amount of oil and seasonings.
- Arrange on a microwave-safe plate.
- Microwave for 3 minutes.
- If not crispy enough, microwave for 30 seconds more.

Re: microwave. Don't do it. Just don't.
Use lacinato (dinosaur) kale, remove ribs, rub leaves with olive oil, one layer of kale on baking sheet, oven at 325 or less, 10-15 minutes (keep checking), salt after cooking.
It's easy to mess up kale chips, but once you get it down, they're great.

Thanks, Pete!
