Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Thoroughly wash and scrub the russet potatoes to remove any dirt from the skin. Pat them dry.
Cut the potatoes into 1/4-inch thick sticks to form fries. Try to keep them as uniform as possible to ensure even cooking.
In a large bowl, combine the cut potatoes, olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss the potatoes until they are evenly coated with the seasoning.
Spread the seasoned potato sticks in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding to ensure the fries become crispy.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Then, remove the baking sheet and flip the fries over to ensure even crisping. Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until they are golden brown and crispy.
While the fries are baking, combine the minced garlic with the chopped fresh parsley in a small bowl.
Once the fries are done baking, remove them from the oven and immediately sprinkle the garlic-parsley mixture over the hot fries. Toss gently to distribute evenly.
Serve the fries hot as a delightful, sugar-free side dish or snack. Enjoy!
