Baked Parmesan Fingerling Potato Fries

1: Add potatoes to a large bowl or pot and cover with cold water and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Let soak 30 minutes up to overnight (refrigerate if soaking longer than an hour).

2: Drain potatoes and pat dry (optional for crispy potatoes).

3: Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with greased foil. Set aside.

4: Cut potatoes in half lengthwise and add to a large bowl.

5: Toss dry potatoes with olive oil, butter, 3/4 teaspoon salt, garlic powder, pepper and Italian Herb Grinder until evenly coated.

6: Line potatoes in a single layer on greased foil skin side up (leave any remaining oil in bowl for later).

7: Bake for 20 minutes at 400 degrees F.

8: Remove potatoes back to large bowl with leftover oil. Increase oven temperature to 425 degrees F.

9: Toss potatoes with 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese and remaining oil and return to baking sheet in a single layer, skin side down, and bake 10 minutes or until tender.

10: Broil potatoes until they have crisped to your liking, stirring every few minutes so they don’t burn.

11: Once done, toss fries with an additional 1/4 cup Parmesan and 1/4 fresh parsley. Serve with ketchup, ranch or other dipping sauce.
