Preheat the oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel the large rutabaga and cut it into thin fry-like strips, approximately half an inch thick. Try to keep the size consistent for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the rutabaga fries with olive oil until they are well coated.
Sprinkle the garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper over the fries. Toss again to ensure each piece is evenly seasoned.
Spread the seasoned rutabaga fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure not to overcrowd them; use an additional baking sheet if necessary to allow hot air to circulate freely.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes.
After 20 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven and carefully flip each fry. Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Once crispy, remove the fries from the oven and immediately sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over them while they are still hot.
Finish by garnishing with chopped fresh parsley. Serve hot as a delicious keto-friendly side dish.
