Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoons Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly, leaving the skin on for extra texture and flavor. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Cut the potatoes into evenly sized wedges or thin strips, about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick, ensuring uniform thickness for even cooking.
In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to form a seasoning mix.
Add the potato wedges or strips to the bowl and toss until all the pieces are evenly coated in the oil and seasoning blend.
Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded. This helps them crisp up properly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then remove the baking sheet and carefully flip the fries using a spatula.
Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for another 15 minutes, or until the fries are golden-brown and crispy on the outside while tender on the inside.
Remove the fries from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Serve immediately, optionally with ketchup, aioli, or your favorite dipping sauce.
