Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Wash and peel the russet potatoes and julienne them into thin shoestring pieces, about 1/8 inch thick.
In a large bowl, toss the sliced potatoes with avocado oil, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Add sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika to the potatoes and mix well until all pieces are evenly seasoned.
Spread the seasoned potato strips evenly across the prepared baking sheets in a single layer, making sure they are not overcrowded. This will ensure they bake evenly and get crispy.
Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes.
After 15 minutes, take the baking sheets out and flip the fries using a spatula. Rotate the baking sheets in the oven to ensure even cooking.
Bake the fries for an additional 15 minutes, or until they are crispy and golden brown.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the fries cool for a couple of minutes.
Serve the fries immediately as a tasty and crispy Whole30 compliant side or snack.
