Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Wash and peel the russet potatoes, then cut them into 1/4-inch thick fries.
Place the cut potatoes in a large bowl of cold water and let them soak for 10 minutes to remove excess starch. Drain and pat them dry with paper towels.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, black pepper, and salt. Mix well to form the seasoning blend.
Add the dried potato fries to the bowl and toss them until evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 400°F) and lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Place the seasoned fries directly on the grill grates or in a grill basket, ensuring they are in a single layer for even cooking.
Grill the fries for 20-25 minutes, turning them occasionally with tongs to ensure they cook evenly and develop a nice char. Remove them once they are golden and crispy.
Transfer the grilled fries to a serving platter and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for garnish.
Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauces and enjoy!
