For Idaho® Potato Crisps:
  1. Preheat oven to 425°.
  2. Thinly slice potatoes (about 1/4 inch), about 32 slices. (Extra slices are great for munching.) Rinse potato slices. Dry on paper towels.
  3. Place in a ziplock bag and toss with olive oil. Place potato slices in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper.
  4. Cover with a second sheet of parchment paper and place a second baking sheet on top to weigh down the slices.
  5. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove top baking sheet.
  6. Place baking sheet on top shelf of oven and bake another 10-12 minutes, turning potato slices over after 6 minutes. Potato crisps will be golden brown.
To Assemble and Serve:
  1. Place 1 burger on each potato crisp.
  2. Pipe a small amount of the creamy garnish on each.
  3. Serve on a platter scattered with chives.
