  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Chopped fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

 

Instructions

  2. In a large bowl, toss the cut sweet potato fries with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

  3. Spread the seasoned fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure not to overcrowd them.

  4. Bake for 20 minutes, then flip the fries with a spatula and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until they are crispy and lightly browned.

  5. Remove the fries from the oven and let them cool slightly.

  6. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired.

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
