Oven Baked Potato Chips with Sage and Cracked Pepper

I last made Herby Oven-Baked Chips over three years ago!! This afternoon I was going through my refrigerator and I found I still had a few sprigs of sage left over from last weeks groceries. They were in great shape thanks to the chiller setting on my fridge and I wondered how I could best enjoy them!! Its too hot to really cook, so I settled on baked chips. Potatoes and sage go together beautifully. A little salt and pepper, a few wedges of onion, loads of garlic, and a couple of tablespoons of olive oil, and you have the perfect combination.

Ingredients:
4 large potatoes
1 large onion, sliced into thick wedges
4-5 cloves garlic, smashed
Salt to taste
1/2 tsp cracked pepper
4-5 sprigs sage
2 tbsp olive oil

Method:

1. Peel, wash, and slice the potatoes lengthwise.  Place the slices in a large mixing bowl.
2. Sprinkle with salt and cracked pepper. Pour the olive oil.
3. Using the palms of your hands, mix the potatoes with the seasoning and oil ensuring that each slice is well coated.
4. Remove the potatoes into an oven-proof pan.
5. In the same seasoning, add the garlic and onion wedges.
6. Pour this over the potatoes along with any remaining oil  in the oven proof pan. Sprinkle with sage leaves.
7. Bake at 450 F for 40-45 minutes or until the potatoes are well cooked and browning along the edges.
8. Remove from the oven and serve warm with ketchup, hot sauce, or a dip of choice.
