Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spay with nonstick spray. Set aside.
Rinse kale and remove thick stems. Chop kale leaves into large pieces (bigger than you would for a salad). Set aside.
In a large bowl, mix together extra virgin olive oil, parmesan cheese, cayenne pepper and ground pepper. Add chopped kale leaves to bowl and massage oil mixture into kale leaves.
Place kale chips onto prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until chips dry and slightly browned. Watch carefully. They go from almost done to overdone very quickly!
Remove from oven and taste. Sprinkle salt to taste, if needed. Let kale chips cool to room temperature and store in an airtight container.
