Ingredients
- 4 medium russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon parsley
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit (220 degrees Celsius) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Slice each potato into thin strips about 1/4 inch thick to form fries.
Step 3
Place the sliced potatoes in a large bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This step helps remove starch and make them crispier.
Step 4
After soaking, drain the potatoes and pat them dry thoroughly using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Step 5
Place the dried potato sticks in a dry bowl and add 3 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon of paprika, and 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder. Toss until the potatoes are evenly coated.
Step 6
Arrange the potato fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring there is space between each fry for even cooking.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then flip the fries over. Continue baking for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until crispy and golden brown.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
Step 9
Serve immediately while the fries are hot and enjoy your Paleo Crispy Baked Potato Fries!
