How to Make Oven Garlic Fries

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C). Lightly coat a large rimmed baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. Wash and cut 2 pounds of russet potatoes into 1/2-inch thick fries. Pat them completely dry with paper towels.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with 2 1/2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.
  4. Arrange the fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding.
  5. Roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the fries are starting to brown and are slightly tender.
  6. Increase oven temperature to 500°F (260°C). Continue roasting for 5-7 minutes, or until the fries are golden brown and crispy.
  7. While the fries are roasting, whisk together 1/2 tablespoon olive oil, 2 cloves minced garlic, and 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley in a small bowl.
  8. Once the fries are cooked, immediately transfer them to the bowl with the garlic-parsley mixture. Toss gently to coat.
  9. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately and enjoy!
