The Best Oven Fries
These really are The Best Oven Fries, ever. Skip the bag, and the frying, this recipe is exactly what you are looking for, perfectly crispy fries baked right in your oven.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds russets peeled and cut ¼" thick sticks
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 ¼ teaspoons salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
I always use Kosher salt in my kitchen! If using table salt, start with half the amount and adjust to taste, as it is much "saltier" by volume.
Instructions
- Peel and cut the potatoes into ¼" thick sticks. Place in a bowl and cover with water. Place in the refrigerator and chill for 30 minutes.
- Preheat an oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Drain the water off of the potatoes. Pat dry and lay out on the parchment lined baking sheet. Toss with the oil, season with salt and pepper.
- Place in the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Stir and bake for another 20-30 minutes or until the fries are lightly browned and crispy. Enjoy!
