Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Large russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1.5 teaspoons Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 piece Lemon
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 0.5 cup Crumbled feta cheese (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with non-stick spray.
Wash and scrub the russet potatoes thoroughly. Peel them if desired, but leaving the skin on adds texture and flavor.
Cut the potatoes into evenly sized wedges, roughly 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick, for even cooking.
Place the potato wedges in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the olive oil over the potatoes, and sprinkle with garlic powder, oregano, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Toss the potatoes until they are evenly coated with the oil and seasonings.
Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded to help them crisp up.
Bake the fries in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, turning them halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.
While the fries are baking, finely chop the fresh parsley and slice the lemon into wedges.
Once the fries are golden brown and crispy, remove them from the oven and immediately squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top for brightness.
Sprinkle the fries with the chopped parsley and crumbled feta cheese, if using, for added flavor and garnish.
Serve the Greek oven fries warm as a delicious side dish or snack, accompanied by your favorite dipping sauces if desired.
