Totally Tangy Baked French Fries

SUBMITTED BY: amanda1432 PHOTO BY: pomplemousse

"Southwestern flavors blend with spicy mustard for a zippy alternative to deep-fried fries. Feel free to increase the cayenne, red pepper, and chili powder if you like them spicier. You won't want to let the ketchup bottle near the table!"

INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

  • 4 russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/4 inch thick fries
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 2 tablespoons spicy brown mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  2. In a large bowl, stir together the olive oil, lime juice, garlic, red pepper flakes, cayenne pepper, chili powder, mustard, and pepper. Add the potato slices, and stir until evenly coated. Arrange fries in a single layer on a large baking sheet.
  3. Bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven. Then, turn the fries over, and continue to bake for 10 to 15 more minutes, until crispy and browned. Season with salt, and serve.
