• 2 Tbsp avocado oil
• ¼ tsp cayenne pepper, or more to taste
• ½ tsp sweet paprika
• ½ tsp garlic powder
• ½ tsp onion powder

For the Aioli

• ½ cup homemade mayo or Whole30 complaint mayo

• 2 Tbsp lemon juice (about the juice of one lemon)
• Black pepper, to taste
• Kosher salt, to taste

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 375.
2. Place sliced okra in a bowl. Combine the okra, avocado oil, cayenne pepper, sweet paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, white pepper and kosher salt. Toss to coat.
3. On a baking sheet topped with a wire rack, place the okra in rows (do not overcrowd or overlap, otherwise the okra will not crisp). Roast for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
