Transform your potato game with these irresistible Oven Steak Fries—golden, crispy, and bursting with flavor! Made from hearty Russet potatoes, these thick-cut fries are seasoned to perfection with a mouthwatering blend of garlic powder, paprika, and a dash of black pepper. Baked, not fried, they deliver that perfect crunch while remaining a lighter, healthier alternative to traditional fries. Ready in just 50 minutes, including prep and bake time, this easy recipe is ideal for weeknight dinners or as a crowd-pleasing snack. Garnished with fresh parsley for a pop of color, these oven steak fries pair wonderfully with burgers, grilled meats, or your favorite dipping sauces. Perfectly crispy on the outside, tender on the inside—these oven-baked fries will become your go-to side dish!
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with nonstick cooking spray.
Wash and scrub the Russet potatoes thoroughly. Pat them dry with a kitchen towel to remove excess moisture but do not peel them.
Cut each potato lengthwise into thick wedges, about 8-10 slices per potato, depending on the size.
Place the potato wedges into a large mixing bowl. Add olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss the wedges with your hands or a spatula until evenly coated in the seasoning mixture.
Arrange the potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure the wedges are spaced out and not overlapping for even crisping.
Bake the fries in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove the baking sheet, flip the wedges over with a spatula, and return to the oven for another 15 minutes or until golden brown and crispy on the outside.
Remove the steak fries from the oven and sprinkle with optional chopped parsley for extra flavor and a pop of color.
Serve immediately as a side or snack, and enjoy your crispy oven steak fries!
