Ingredients

• 4 large Russet potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoons Chili powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.

Step 2

Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly, leaving the skin on for extra texture and flavor. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

Step 3

Cut the potatoes into evenly sized wedges or thin strips, about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick, ensuring uniform thickness for even cooking.

Step 4

In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to form a seasoning mix.

Step 5

Add the potato wedges or strips to the bowl and toss until all the pieces are evenly coated in the oil and seasoning blend.

Step 6

Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded. This helps them crisp up properly.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then remove the baking sheet and carefully flip the fries using a spatula.

Step 8

Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for another 15 minutes, or until the fries are golden-brown and crispy on the outside while tender on the inside.

Step 9

Remove the fries from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Serve immediately, optionally with ketchup, aioli, or your favorite dipping sauce.
