Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoons Cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 teaspoons Cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
Peel the sweet potatoes and slice them into thin, even strips, about 1/4-inch thick, to ensure even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the sweet potato strips with olive oil to coat them evenly.
In a small bowl, mix together paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and cornstarch.
Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the sweet potatoes and toss until all the fries are evenly coated.
Arrange the sweet potato fries in a single layer on the baking sheet, ensuring they are not overlapping for maximum crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, then remove the baking sheet and flip the fries using tongs or a spatula to ensure even cooking.
Return the fries to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until they are golden and crispy around the edges.
Remove the fries from the oven and let them cool for 2-3 minutes. Optionally, garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as spicy mayo or ketchup, and enjoy this kickin' snack!
