How to Make Kickin Sweet Potato Fries

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Wash and peel 2 large sweet potatoes. Cut into 1/2-inch thick fries.
  3. Toss the fries with 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large bowl.
  4. Season generously with your favorite spicy seasoning (about 1-2 teaspoons), 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Make sure the fries are evenly coated.
  5. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. Arrange the fries in a single layer, ensuring they're not overcrowded.
  6. Bake for 40-50 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy. Thicker fries may require an extra 10-15 minutes. For extra crispy fries, consider broiling for the last 2-3 minutes (keep a close eye to prevent burning).
  7. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
