Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
Peel the sweet potatoes (optional) and cut them into evenly sized sticks, about 1/4-inch thick, to ensure even cooking.
Place the sweet potato sticks in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat evenly.
Add the minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme, salt, pepper, and paprika to the bowl. Toss the sweet potatoes until they are evenly coated with the seasonings.
Spread the seasoned sweet potato fries on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they are not crowded. Use a second baking sheet if needed.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove the baking sheet, flip the fries with a spatula, and bake for another 15 minutes, or until the fries are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
Once cooked, remove the fries from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired, and serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
