Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry with a towel.
Cut the potatoes into 1/4-inch thick sticks, trying to keep them uniform for even cooking.
In a large bowl, toss the potato sticks with olive oil, ensuring each piece is well-coated.
Add the garlic powder, dried oregano, dried thyme, dried rosemary, and black pepper to the bowl, then toss until the potatoes are evenly coated with the spice mixture.
Spread the seasoned potatoes out on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Make sure they are not overlapping to ensure maximum crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then flip the fries using a spatula to ensure even cooking.
Return the fries to the oven and bake an additional 15-20 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the fries from the oven and immediately sprinkle with fresh lemon juice and chopped parsley.
Serve hot as a delicious side dish or a tasty snack!
