Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and scrub the russet potatoes thoroughly. Pat them dry with a clean towel or paper towels.
Cut each potato into 1/4 inch thick fries, ensuring they are as uniform in size as possible for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
Add the cut fries to the bowl and toss them well in the spiced oil mixture, ensuring each fry is evenly coated.
Spread the fries out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they do not overlap for best results.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
After 25 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven, and use a spatula to flip the fries.
Return the baking sheet to the oven and continue baking for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the fries are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the fries from the oven and drizzle them with sriracha sauce, tossing them gently to coat.
Serve immediately for the best crispiness and enjoy the fiery flavor!
