Baked Seasoned Fries

Baked Seasoned Fries

Baked Seasoned Fries are quick and easy to make.  No frying in oil.  Baked in the oven.  Crispy outside and tender inside. 

This side dish pairs well with burgers, hotdogs and Smack-a-licious Chili. 

Baked Seasoned Fries are also good slathered with melted cheddar cheese or Parmesan cheese.

Editor’s Note (January 9, 2021):  Added four new photos. Updated recipe by adding cheddar cheese as an optional ingredient.  Updated instructions.   

DISCLAIMER (NOT SPONSORED):  Pictured product is a personal favorite.  I have not been paid to endorse this product.  Gladly purchased with my own cash.  All comments are my own.

Most “busy cooks” keep products in the fridge or pantry that can be whipped up quickly and taste good.  These products come in handy on busy days when we need to get dinner on the table without a lot of fuss. 

Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE homemade from scratch food.  However, I’m a busy recipe developer, food blogger who also provides assistance to my precious aunt who has severe rheumatoid arthritis (twisted hands and feet).  She can still take good care of herself, I just assist when she asks.  

My aunt is a very strong person.  She doesn’t depend on others (as she likes to tell me).  

NOT sponsored. Just sharing a favorite brand. Always good in my opinion.

With that being said, I usually have a bag of frozen seasoned fries in the freezer.  They’re quick and easy to prepare.  My aunt and I love them! 

They’re best when baked in the oven on an ungreased cookie sheet.  They get crisp on a dark pan.  Fries are less crispy when baked in a white bottomed baking dish.

For best results, decide how much you will need to avoid refrigerating leftovers.

Delicious snack.  Also pairs well with burgers, hotdogs, Smack-a-licious Chili and sandwiches.

Helpful Tips For Beginners:  How To Read & Follow Any Recipe

Reading a recipe is an important life skill.  It starts with knowing how to read a recipe’s ingredients, follow the instructions, prep ingredients, and knowing what type of equipment to use. 

The following tips and strategies will help beginners or experienced cooks use a recipe to create a delicious dish. 

Start with clean hands and organized kitchen.  Wash hands thoroughly.  Make sure kitchen and countertops are clean before making a recipe.

Create a relaxing environment.  Play favorite music while in the kitchen.  I love listening to classical or gospel music. 

Read the recipe.   Don’t just quickly skim it.  Thoroughly read from start to finish.  Visualize doing each step which will help you follow each step.  No misses! 

If you see ingredient that you and your family don’t use for whatever reason, try a substitute or omit the ingredient.

Pay attention to the order in which ingredients are prepped.  For example, 1 cup of  chopped pecans is not the same as walnuts, chopped (measure whole walnuts and then chop).  

Know the assumptions.  For example, when my recipe calls for “sugar,” use granulated sugar.  If brown sugar is an ingredient, it will be written that way in the recipe.  

Figure out the timing. Check the listed “prep time” and “total time” to be sure you have enough time to complete the recipe.

Look for hints, such as the words “meanwhile” or “at the same time,” which indicate two or more steps can happen simultaneously.  

Watch Recipe Videos.    If you’re a visual learner (like me), watch recipe videos.  Perfect for when you’re learning a new skill or just want to see how a recipe is made.    

Mise en place is a super time saver. This French cooking term translates as “putting in place.”   It means prepping/measuring ingredients and chopping food before you start cooking. It’s the perfect way to get organized, use each ingredient and complete each step.  Nothing is overlooked.

Organize your tools and kitchen equipment.  Mise en place isn’t just for ingredients.   Before starting, make sure you have parchment paper, aluminum foil, measuring cups, measuring spoons, the right pans, mixing bowls, and other equipment.

Kitchen Supplies Sifter

Make notes in your recipe. Note any special prep instructions and highlight cooking times.  Make note of ingredients omitted,  favorite substitutions and creative twists.   The notes will be very helpful the next time you make this recipe. 

Enjoy!

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Spread frozen fries in a single layer on an ungreased baking sheet. A dark pan will produce crispy fries. A white bottomed baking dish will produce softer fries. I use a pizza pan.
  3. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until desired crispness.
  4. Remove fries from oven. Sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese OR grated Parmesan cheese.
  5. Turn oven off.
  6. Return fries to HOT oven for 1-2 minutes or until cheese is melted. Cheese will melt while oven is turned off.
  7. Serve hot.
  8. NOTE: Place leftovers in a tightly sealed container. Refrigerate. Reheat in preheated 400 degree oven. Please taste will be slightly different from fresh baked fries.

      Hi Cortun! Yes, it is a “variation” of the recipe printed on the bag. Although I enjoy cooking from scratch, I do add extra flavor to frozen products when I need to whip up something quickly. Delighted to share a favorite product with visitors who also appreciate a good frozen product. Today, I added shredded cheddar cheese as an optional topping. Also updated the recipe’s instructions with tips NOT printed on the back of the bag. Thank you for visiting my blog and leaving a comment. Please come again!
