Equipment

Ingredients

  • 6 Russet potatoes (washed and cut into wedges)
  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 Tablespoon chili powder
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon onion powder
  • ¼ teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Wash potatoes and dry with paper towels.
  • Cut potatoes in half lengthwise, then cut each half into 4 wedges. Cut each wedge in half again depending on size of potato and desired size.
  • Place cut potatoes in a resealable bag and pour olive oil on top.
  • Seal bag and shake until potatoes are coated in olive oil.
  • In a small bowl, combine chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, paprika, cumin, salt and pepper.
  • Pour spice mixture into bag, seal and shake to coat again.
  • Spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray, and spread potatoes out in an even layer on the prepared pan.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, turning halfway through, until wedges are golden brown and crisp on the outside.

Notes

  • If you want extra crispy fries, turn the broiler in your oven on high and broil for 1-2 minutes until you reached desired doneness.
