Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Wash and scrub the russet potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a kitchen towel.
Cut the potatoes into evenly sized wedges by first halving them lengthwise, then cutting each half into three or four wedges, depending on the size of the potato.
Place the potato wedges in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the olive oil over the potatoes and toss to coat evenly.
In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, paprika, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle the seasoning mix over the potatoes and toss again to ensure even coating.
Arrange the potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure there is space between each wedge for even cooking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through, until the fries are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
Remove the fries from the oven and let them cool for 2-3 minutes. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce or as a side to your meal.
