Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Idaho potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon, chopped Fresh rosemary
- 1 tablespoon, chopped Fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup, grated (optional) Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Wash and scrub the Idaho potatoes thoroughly but leave the skin on for added texture and flavor. Pat the potatoes dry with a kitchen towel.
Cut the potatoes into evenly sized fries, approximately 1/2-inch thick, ensuring uniform size for even cooking.
Transfer the sliced potatoes to a large mixing bowl. Drizzle them with the olive oil and toss to coat evenly.
Add the chopped rosemary, thyme, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Toss again until the fries are well-coated with the herb mixture.
Spread the fries out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overlapping to ensure crispiness.
Roast the fries in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time, until they are golden brown and crispy.
If using, sprinkle the roasted fries with grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese immediately after removing them from the oven, allowing it to melt slightly.
Serve the herb-roasted Idaho potato fries warm as a side dish or snack. Optionally, pair them with your favorite dipping sauce.
