Recipes

Steak & - Sweet Potato Friestap

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.

1. Cut the potatoes into 1/4″ thin strips, or to your desired thickness and length. Mix all other ingredients together in a large bowl and toss with the potatoes until they are evenly coated. (can add more or less spices as desired)

Remove once the edges slightly begin to brown and fries begin to crisp. Sprinkle course salt (optional) on top when they are hot out of the oven.
