Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces large russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut each potato into evenly-sized fries, approximately 1/4 inch thick.
In a large bowl, toss the potato fries with olive oil until they are well-coated.
In a small bowl, mix together the smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, dried thyme, lemon zest, salt, and black pepper.
Sprinkle the spice mixture over the oiled fries, ensuring each fry is evenly coated with the spice blend.
Spread the fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure not to overcrowd them.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping the fries halfway through the cooking time, until they are golden brown and crispy.
Once cooked, remove the fries from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
Transfer the soy-free peri peri fries to a serving dish and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Enjoy the fries hot with your favorite dipping sauce!
