Ingredients
- 2 large Russet potatoes
- 3-4 Tbsp canola or vegetable oil depending on size of potatoes
- ½ Tbsp lemon juice
- 2 Tbsp fresh parsley minced
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp paprika
- ½ tsp granulated garlic
- 1 Roma tomato diced
- ½ cup feta cheese crumbled
- ¼ cup red onion diced
- ¼ cup kalamata olives chopped
Instructions
- Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and spray paper with non-stick baking spray; set aside.
- Slice potatoes lengthwise into ¼” slices. Lay each slice flat and slice into ¼” strips.
- After slicing, place potatoes in a bowl of cold water; let soak for 30 minutes. (Note: This removes some of the starch from the potatoes so they will crisp up better in the oven.)
- Preheat oven to 450°F.
- Remove fries from water; pat lightly with paper towels to remove excess water.
- Using a large bowl, add fries and oil; toss until fries are well coated.
- Arrange fries in a single layer on prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 20 minutes, flip and continue baking for 15-20 more minutes, or until edges of the fries turn golden brown.
- Transfer fries into large bowl and add lemon juice, parsley, salt, oregano, paprika and garlic; toss until well combined.
- Arrange fries on large plate and top with tomato, feta, onion and olives; serve immediately.
