TikTok Onion Ring Chips Recipe

Introduction

If you love crispy snacks with bold flavors, these TikTok Onion Ring Chips are a must-try. Combining the sharpness of onions with the rich, savory crunch of parmesan, they make a perfect homemade treat that’s both satisfying and easy to make.

Ingredients

• 8 ounces parmesan cheese (freshly grated)
• 3 medium yellow onions
• 2 tablespoons avocado oil
• 2 teaspoons paprika (or to taste)
• 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt (or to taste)
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder (or to taste)
• ½ teaspoon seasoning salt (or to taste)
• ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper (or to taste)

Instructions

1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a large rimmed baking pan with parchment paper. Set it aside while you prepare the ingredients.
2. Step 2: Grate the parmesan cheese evenly and spread it in a thin layer over the parchment paper on the baking pan.
3. Step 3: Thinly slice the yellow onions, about 1/6 inch thick. Using a mandolin slicer is ideal for uniform slices. Lay the onion slices in a single layer on top of the parmesan.
4. Step 4: Brush the onion slices lightly with avocado oil to ensure an even coating.
5. Step 5: Sprinkle paprika, coarse sea salt, garlic powder, seasoning salt, and ground black pepper evenly over the onions.
6. Step 6: Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the chips turn golden brown and crisp. Once done, let them cool on the pan for about 10 minutes before serving.

Tips & Variations

• For the best texture, use freshly grated parmesan rather than pre-shredded. It melts and crisps better.
• Try swapping avocado oil with olive oil or melted butter for a different flavor profile.
• Adjust the spice mix by adding cayenne for heat or smoked paprika for a smoky twist.
• If you don’t have a mandolin, slice onions as thinly as possible with a sharp knife to ensure even cooking.

Storage

Store leftover onion ring chips in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. To re-crisp, place them on a baking sheet and warm in a 350°F oven for 3–5 minutes. Avoid refrigerating as moisture can make them soggy.

FAQs

Can I use other types of cheese instead of parmesan?

While parmesan works best for its sharp flavor and crisping ability, you can experiment with other hard cheeses like Asiago or Pecorino Romano. Soft cheeses won’t hold up well when baked.

How thin should the onion slices be?

Slicing onions about 1/6 inch thick ensures they cook evenly and become crispy without burning. Using a mandolin is the easiest way to achieve uniform slices.

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

Cheese

• 8 ounces parmesan cheese, freshly grated

Vegetables

• 3 medium yellow onions, sliced very thin (about 1/6 inch)

Oil

• 2 tablespoons avocado oil

Seasonings

• 2 teaspoons paprika (or to taste)
• 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt (or to taste)
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder (or to taste)
• ½ teaspoon seasoning salt (or to taste)
• ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper (or to taste)

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C). Line a large rimmed baking pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking and set it aside.
2. Prepare the parmesan base: Grate 8 ounces of fresh parmesan cheese and spread it evenly in a thin layer over the parchment paper on the baking sheet.
3. Slice the onions: Using a mandolin or a sharp knife, slice the 3 medium yellow onions very thinly, about 1/6 inch thick. Layer the onion slices on top of the parmesan cheese in a single, even layer.
4. Oil the onions: Brush the onion slices with 2 tablespoons of avocado oil to help them crisp up and add flavor.
5. Season the chips: Evenly sprinkle 2 teaspoons paprika, 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon seasoning salt, and ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper over the onion slices for a balanced savory taste.
6. Bake to crispness: Place the baking pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes. Bake until the onion rings are golden brown and crispy.
7. Cool before serving: Remove the pan from the oven and let the onion ring chips cool on the pan for 10 minutes. Cooling allows them to crisp up further for the perfect crunch.

Notes

• Using a mandolin slicer ensures uniform onion thickness for even baking.
• Adjust seasoning quantities to taste, especially salt and paprika for spiciness.
• Make sure to spread the parmesan cheese thinly to promote crispiness but still hold the onion slices together.
• Let the chips cool completely for maximum crispness before serving or storing.
• Store any leftovers in an airtight container to maintain freshness, but they are best eaten within a couple of days.
