Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with non-stick spray.
Step 2
Wash and scrub the russet potatoes thoroughly. Leave the skin on for added texture. Slice each potato into evenly sized wedges, about 1/2 inch thick.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, smoked paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Step 4
Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss well to coat evenly with the seasoned oil mixture.
Step 5
Spread the seasoned potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not overlapping to ensure they crisp up properly.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove the baking sheet, flip the fries, and return to the oven for an additional 10 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
Step 7
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the hot fries straight out of the oven. Let the residual heat melt the cheese, or return the baking sheet to the oven for 2-3 minutes to melt the cheese fully.
Step 8
Transfer the cheesy oven fries to a serving plate and garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
