Ingredients:
- 1 lb lean chicken breast
- 1/2 tsp fine sea salt
Instructions:
- Freeze the lean chicken breast for 30 minutes. Note: This firms the proteins so they don't slide under the blade
- Using a mandoline slicer, slice the cold meat against the grain into translucent, paper thin rounds approximately 1.5mm thick.
- Lay the slices on paper towels and pat them firmly on both sides to remove all surface moisture. Note: This is the most important step for a shatter effect
- Place slices in a single layer in an air fryer basket or on a parchment lined baking sheet, ensuring at least 1/2 inch of space between each chip.
- Season lightly with 1/2 tsp fine sea salt.
- Cook in air fryer at 325°F (160°C) for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until edges curl and turn deep golden brown.
- Alternatively, cook in an oven at 300°F (150°C) for 20-30 minutes on a wire rack until they feel rigid and look golden.
- Remove chips immediately and let them rest on a wire rack for 5 minutes to harden into a shattering crust.
