Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- Olive oil spray
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Chili flakes
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and scrub the russet potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. Leave the skin on for extra fiber and nutrients.
Cut the potatoes into thin, even strips resembling classic French fries, about 1/4 inch thick.
Place the sliced potatoes in a large bowl and spray lightly with olive oil spray, tossing to coat evenly.
In a small bowl, combine the paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and chili flakes.
Sprinkle the spice mix over the potatoes and toss to ensure the fries are thoroughly coated.
Spread the fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded to ensure even cooking.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, turning the fries halfway through, until they are crispy and golden brown.
Once done, remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes.
Garnish the fries with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve immediately while they are hot for the best texture and flavor.
