Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Wash and peel the potatoes if desired (leave the skin on for extra fiber). Cut the potatoes into thin, even sticks about 1/4-inch thick for uniform cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the potato sticks with olive oil, ensuring all pieces are lightly coated.
Sprinkle the salt, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper evenly over the potatoes. Toss again to distribute the seasonings.
Spread the seasoned potato sticks out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure not to overcrowd them for optimal crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove the baking sheet, flip the fries over using a spatula, and return them to the oven.
Bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the fries are golden brown and crispy on the edges. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
Remove the fries from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Taste and adjust with additional salt if needed.
Serve immediately as a side dish or snack. Enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce!
