Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Do not peel them, as the skin adds texture and flavor.
Slice the potatoes into 1/4-inch thick fries. Try to keep the sizes consistent to ensure even cooking.
Place the potato slices in a large bowl and cover with cold water. Let them soak for 10 minutes to remove excess starch and make them crispy.
Drain the potatoes and pat them dry thoroughly with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
In a separate large bowl, mix the olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.
Add the dried potato slices to the bowl with the seasoning and toss well to ensure they are fully coated.
Spread the seasoned potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure they are not overcrowded to allow them to bake evenly.
Bake the fries in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Then, remove the tray, flip the fries with a spatula, and return them to the oven for another 20 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
Once cooked, remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Sprinkle with fresh parsley for garnish before serving.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Whole30 Angry Fries as a spicy and healthy snack or side dish!
