Sour Cream + Onion Baked Steak Fries

Sour Cream + Onion Baked Steak Fries

It's been a month of me being sick today. Another day, another doctor. But, that won't slow me down. Even though I have lost almost 20 pounds from not being able to eat, I still am cooking up a storm. My family must love when I come home because I just constantly cook meals for everyone and I enjoy doing it. On Saturday, a recipe for a yummy patty melts. And what is better than a burger + some french fries? For my Mountain Man, it couldn't get any better. But, they are quite the deathly pair with all that oil and fatty, meaty goodness. So, why not switch it up and bake some steak fries. I really liked this because I love sour cream + onion potato chips, and these fries really pack a flavorful punch. But, hey you don't feel as bad because they are oven-baked. Yes, they might not be as crispy as a deep fried fry, but sometimes you really just don't all that mess to deal with. Here's your solution!! Enjoy :)

For the Sour Cream & Onion Baked Steak Fries:

2.5lbs Yukon Gold Potatoes, Cut into Wedges

4T Olive Oil or Vegetable Oil

2t Fresh Garlic, Minced

3T Powdered Buttermilk

1 ½T Onion Powder

1t Garlic Powder

Salt & Pepper, To Taste

3 ½T Fresh Dill, Finely Chopped

1T Fresh Parsley, Finely Chopped

1T Fresh Chives, Minced

2T Parmesan Cheese, Freshly Grated

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Spray with non-stick spray.

2. Add potato wedges to a large bowl and coat with olive oil and minced garlic, using your hands to toss in order to coat evenly. In a small bowl, combine powdered buttermilk, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper and dill together and mix well. Sprinkle three quarters of the mixture evenly over the potato wedges, coating completely. Place potatoes on the wire rack and sprinkle with Parmesan.

3. Bake for 20 minutes, flipping and tossing once, then for 15-20 minutes more, until golden and crispy. Remove and immediately toss with remaining sour cream and onion mix, and even more fresh dill, fresh parsley, and fresh chives.
4. Place the fries onto a serving plate and garnish with even more freshly grated Parmesan cheese all over the top (the more, the better). Enjoy immediately while they are still crispy and warm.
