Zesty Fries

Still on the topic of potatoes, I found this recipe for Zesty Fries in "Miserly Meals" by Jonni McCoy way before Kaden was born. But, it has ended up being a long term favorite potato to spice up our meals.

Zesty Fries

Ingredients

6 brown potatoes
¼ c. vegetable oil
3 Tbsp. lemon juice
1 tsp. garlic powder (opt'l)
1 tsp. onion powder
1 Tbsp. Italian seasoning
1 tsp. salt
½ tsp. pepper
½ tsp. Tabasco (green or red)

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease 9x13" pan. Clean and cut potatoes into wedges. Lay potatoes skin side down on pan. Combine oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper and Tabasco in bowl. Dribble or brush mixture over potatoes. Bake in oven at 400 degrees for 35 or until tender and golden brown.

Note: Use an old pan or one that you don't care if the teflon finish is ruined in the pan. For some reason during the baking of the potatoes (I think the lemon juice) causes the finish to be dulled. The teflon doesn't come off, but it's not the same pan afterwards. But, the potatoes are delicious!!!!
