Ingredients

- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder

- Optional toppings: sour cream, sliced jalapeños, green onions, and diced tomatoes
Equipment Needed
- Baking sheet
- Large skillet
- Knife and cutting board
- Large bowl
- Oven mitts
Step-by-Step Instructions
To start, I wash and scrub the russet potatoes thoroughly. I dry them and then slice them into fries, about a quarter of an inch thick. I drizzle them with olive oil, sprinkle with garlic and onion powder, and add salt and pepper to taste. Then, I lay them out on a baking sheet in a single layer to ensure they cook evenly. I pop them in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for about 30-40 minutes until they’re golden and crispy. Make sure to flip them halfway through for that perfect crunch!
