Seasoned Grilled Fries Recipes

HOMEMADE CRISPY SEASONED FRENCH FRIES

Steps:

• Slice potatoes into French fries, and place into cold water so they won't turn brown while you prepare the oil.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. While the oil is heating, sift the flour, garlic salt, onion salt, (regular) salt, and paprika into a large bowl. Gradually stir in enough water so that the mixture can be drizzled from a spoon.
• Dip potato slices into the batter one at a time, and place in the hot oil so they are not touching at first. The fries must be placed into the skillet one at a time, or they will clump together. Fry until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

SEASONED FRIES

Steps:

• Place potatoes on a foil-lined baking sheet. Bake at 450° for 8 minutes. Combine remaining ingredients; sprinkle over potatoes and mix gently. Bake until the potatoes are browned and crisp, 4-5 minutes longer.

SEASONED FRENCH FRIES

Steps:

• Arrange french fries in a greased 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Sprinkle with onion salt and paprika; toss to coat. Bake at 450° for 15-20 minutes or until lightly browned. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese; toss to coat.

SEASONED GRILLED FRIES

Steps:

• Put the potatoes, unpeeled, into a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil and simmer until almost tender, about 15-20 minutes. Do not overcook, or they will fall apart and you won't be able to cut them into fries.
• Drain and dry the potatoes and allow to cool enough to handle.
• Carefully cut each potato lengthwise into about 6 wedges. (Original recipe said 4 wedges, but those are too thick in my opinion.) You do have to be careful, since they are already cooked, that they could crumble or fall apart.
• Place the wedges on a baking sheet and brush both sides of the potatoes with oil.
• In a small bowl combine chili powder, salt and cumin. Sprinkle over the potatoes.
• Grill the potato wedges for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until golden brown.

"OLD BAY" GRILLED STEAK FRIES

Steps:

• Combine all spices in a small bowl.
• Place potatoes in a pot of cold water, add 1 tablespoon of salt and cook until potatoes are tender, but still firm, about 10 minutes. Drain, let cool and cut each potato lengthwise into 8 slices.
• Heat grill to high.
• Brush potatoes with oil and season with the "Old Bay-style" spice rub and grill until golden brown and cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes.

SKILLET HOME FRIES

Steps:

• Heat oil in a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add onion and saute until soft. Add poblano, red pepper and garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add paprika and cook for 1 minute. Add potatoes and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover and cook until almost cooked through. Remove cover and continue cooking for 5 to 10 minutes until golden brown.

SEASONED FRIES WITH CHEESE SAUCE

Steps:

• Toss half a 28-ounce bag frozen crinkle-cut fries with 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon each kosher salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder and paprika. Spread on a baking sheet and bake at 425˚ until crisp, about 30 minutes. Heat 1/2 cup half-and-half in a saucepan over medium heat until steaming; add 4 ounces diced sharp cheddar cheese and 2 diced slices American cheese. Cook, whisking, until smooth. Whisk in 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with the fries.
