Ingredients

• 4 large Russet potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
• 2 teaspoons Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley
• 2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce
• 0.5 cup Ranch dressing

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Pat them dry with a kitchen towel.

Step 3

Cut the potatoes into evenly-sized strips, aiming for about 1/4-inch thick.

Step 4

In a large bowl, toss the potato strips with olive oil to coat evenly.

Step 5

In a small bowl, combine the cayenne pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.

Step 6

Sprinkle the spice mixture over the oiled potatoes, tossing to ensure the seasoning covers each piece well.

Step 7

Spread the fries out on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they are not crowded to promote even cooking.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, then remove the baking sheet and flip the fries with a spatula.

Step 9

Return the fries to the oven and bake for another 15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.

Step 10

While the fries are baking, mix the Sriracha sauce into the ranch dressing in a small bowl to create a spicy dipping sauce.

Step 11

Once the fries are cooked, remove them from the oven and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley.

Step 12

Serve the angry fries hot with the spicy ranch dipping sauce on the side.
