Greek Fries
Prep Time: 10 minutes | Cook Time: 30 minutes | Serves 4
Ingredients
- 1 pound gold or russet potatoes scrubbed clean and cut into wedges
- Salt and black pepper
- Extra virgin olive oil
- 3 to 4 garlic cloves minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1 tsp dry oregano
- ½ tsp cayenne pepper optional
- Crumbled feta cheese to your liking
- Fresh parsley a handful to your liking
- Tzatziki sauce use our Homemade Tzatziki Recipe
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 425°F.
- Place the potato wedges in a large bowl and cover with hot water for 10 minutes.
- Drain and spread the wedges on a large, clean towel and pat very dry. Dry the large bowl to use again.
- Return the potato wedges back to the dry bowl. Season generously with Kosher salt and black pepper. Drizzle about 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil. Toss to combine, making sure all the potatoes are well-coated.
- Arrange the potatoes in a single layer on a large, lightly oiled sheet pan (non-stick if possible). If you don't have a sheet pan that is large enough, use two pans.
- Bake for 35 to 45 minutes, turning the potato wedges over after the first 20 minutes of baking.
- When the potatoes are crisp on the outside and tender on the inside, they are ready. Remove from the oven and carefully arrange the potatoes on a serving dish.
- If using tzatziki sauce for dipping, prepare it according to this recipe, while the potatoes are baking.
- In a small bowl, combine 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, minced garlic, thyme, oregano, and cayenne.
- Spoon the sauce over the hot potatoes. Add fresh parsley and crumbled feta to your liking. Serve with a side of tzatziki sauce. Enjoy!
