Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh okra
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 500 degrees.
- Rinse the okra and slice each pod lengthwise.
- Place the sliced okra in a large bowl with enough water to completely cover. Add the vinegar and mix well. Let stand for 15 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes.
- Drain and rinse the sliced okra. Pat dry with paper towels.
- Place the prepared okra in a large bowl and drizzle over the olive oil. Sprinkle in the salt and garlic powder. Toss until all pods are coated evenly with the oil and seasonings.
- Put the seasoned okra on a foil-lined baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes, turning the okra halfway through the cooking time.
- Remove the pan from the oven and re-set the temperature to 170 degrees. When the oven has cooled to 170, return the pan to the oven and prop the door slightly open.
- Continue to bake for 2-3 hours or until crisp.

Notes
- The final cooking time will depend on lots of factors - how small the okra is (smaller, young pods work best), how humid it is the day you're cooking, etc. Try one after two hours and continue cooking if needed. I usually cook mine for about 3 hours, but it could take even hours 4 or more if it's an especially humid day.
- Be sure to let the chips cool completely before storing them. You can keep them in a sealed container for 2-3 days at room temperature.
