Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1.5 teaspoons Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly, leaving the skin on for extra texture and flavor. Pat dry with a towel.
Cut each potato lengthwise into 1/4-inch thick sticks to create classic fry shapes. Try to keep the size consistent for even cooking.
Place the cut potatoes into a large bowl. Add the olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to evenly coat the fries with the seasoning.
Spread the coated potato sticks on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Avoid overcrowding to ensure crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove the tray, flip the fries using a spatula, and return to the oven for another 15 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
Remove the fries from the oven and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley if desired. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
