Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 1 as needed Olive oil cooking spray
- 2 teaspoons Oregano
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Low-fat feta cheese
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 4 pieces Lemon wedges
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly, leaving the skin on for added texture and nutrients.
Cut the potatoes into uniform 1/4-inch thick strips to ensure even cooking.
Place the potato strips in a large bowl and lightly coat with olive oil cooking spray.
Add oregano, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Toss everything together to evenly coat the fries with the seasonings.
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the potatoes in a single layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the fries are golden brown and crispy.
Once baked, transfer the fries to a large serving dish.
Immediately sprinkle low-fat feta cheese over the hot fries to slightly melt the cheese.
Top with lemon zest and fresh parsley for added freshness and flavor.
Serve the Greek fries warm with lemon wedges on the side for a tangy kick.
