I rarely follow recipes and I just wanted to make these very simple yet flavorful and this worked!
First I cut the potatoes…
{I preferred to keep the peels on. Only about 1/3 end up having peel on them.}

Next up is seasoning…
I used 3 simple ingredients and put them in a ziplock to coat and marinate well.
(This should work for 2-4 potatoes and measurements can be approximate)
1. olive oil 1/2 cup
2. soy sauce 1/4 cup
3. 1/2 to 1 tsp garlic pepper salt {I love an organic blend I get at sprouts}
Thats all I used! I think I may try some balsamic vinegar in my next batch.
Really though, choose seasonings you like and are comfortable using.
IT DOES NOT HAVE TO BE COMPLICATED!

Lay them out on a foil lined cookie sheet, not overlapping each other.Next…
Try to avoid any excess liquid seasoning in pan also.
BAKE @ 425 degrees for 15 minutes. Set the timer. Don’t check on them, just pull them at 15 minutes and use a spatula to turn them all over. Back in the oven they go for another 15-20 minutes to desired texture.

I love Sweet Potato fries and I’m so disappointed with how skinny the store bought ones are. I will try this recipe since I have a huge one just sitting here calling to me. Thank you for sharing your recipe & tips! Found you at Not Just A Housewife.
Thanks Beth. Hope you enjoy them!
