Herb French Fries

Makes 4-6 servings

 

Ingredients

3 russet potatoes

3 tablespoons canola oil

Salt

Pepper

3 tablespoons unsalted butter

2 tablespoons fresh garlic, minced

1 tablespoon fresh parsley

2 tablespoons fresh chives, finely chopped

1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, finely chopped

 

Directions

Preheat the oven to 475° F. Scrub potatoes and cut into 1/4-inch slices. Soak potato slices in bowl of water for 10 minutes. Drain potatoes and pat them dry with paper towels. Layer baking sheet with 2 tablespoons oil and generously sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add potatoes to pan and drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and spread evenly in single layer. Cover tightly with foil and bake for 5 to 10 minutes. Remove foil and bake until bottoms are golden brown, about 10 minutes. Flip with spatula and cook until other side is golden brown, another 10 to 13 minutes. In small sauté pan, melt butter with the garlic over medium-low heat about 5 minutes. Once potatoes are cooked, toss with garlic butter and fresh herbs.
