In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the room-temperature butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
Reduce mixer speed to low and add the salt, vanilla extract, and egg. Mix until well combined.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in the rolled oats and chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Use a small ice cream scoop or spoon to drop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are golden and the centers are soft.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 1-2 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
