Ingredients
- 2 large onions, thinly sliced into rings
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon Creole seasoning (or any seasoning of choice)
Instructions
- Prepare the onion slices: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Separate the onions into individual rings and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
- Add cheese and seasoning: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the onion rings, ensuring each ring is well-coated. Then, lightly dust the Creole seasoning over the cheese-covered onion rings for a flavorful kick.
- Bake until crispy: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden brown, and the onions are tender yet crisp. Keep an eye to prevent burning.
- Cool and serve: Remove from the oven and allow the chips to cool slightly, so they crisp up even more. Serve warm or at room temperature as a delicious snack or appetizer.
Notes
- You can substitute Creole seasoning with paprika, garlic powder, or your preferred spice blend.
- Use sharp cheddar for a stronger cheese flavor.
- For extra crunch, lay the onion rings out in a single layer without overlapping.
- Serve these chips with a dipping sauce like ranch or spicy mayo for added flavor.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container and re-crisp in the oven before serving.
