Fantastic Oven Garlic Fries

This recipe goes great with Heather's BBQ and makes for a meal worthy of company.  This recipe is not bad for you either; I modified it from a Cooking Light recipe.  

  • 4 teaspoons canola oil
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 8 medium potatoes, washed and cut into 1/4-inch-thick strips
  • Cooking spray
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 4 tsp  garlic salt (I really like McCormick California Style Garlic Salt with parsley)
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Preheat oven to 400°.  Combine first oil, salt, and potatoes in a large plastic bag, tossing to coat. Arrange potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Bake at 400° for 50 minutes or until potatoes are tender and golden brown, turning after 20 minutes.  Combine butter, garlic, and Parmesan cheese.  Brush butter mixture over potatoes.  Broil potatoes for 1-3  minutes being careful not to burn them.  Serve immediately.
