Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly.

Slice the potatoes into thin rounds or wedges, about 1/4 inch thick.

Soak the potato slices in cold water for 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

Drain and pat the potato slices dry with a clean towel.

In a large bowl, toss the potato slices with olive oil until evenly coated.

Sprinkle salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and dried herbs over the potatoes and toss again.

Arrange the potato slices in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
