Fried foods, such as French Fries, can trigger heartburn. Try this alternative to French Fries that are still golden brown and crispy.

Ingredients:

  • 2 pounds Idaho or russet potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch by 5-inch sticks
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil

  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Nonstick cooking spray

Preparation:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Spray a baking or cookie sheet with the nonstick cooking spray.

  • Add oil, parsley flakes, oregano and paprika, and toss potatoes until thoroughly coated.

I fixed these fries tonight, and my three kids and I loved it! They were softer inside than pan fried fries yet nice and crispy outside. The kids wanted more and more and can't wait for me to make oven steak fries again!!!
