Thick Cut Fries w/ Parsley & Sea Salt

This is a delish snack for anytime and is great with whatever you would eat fries with!

5 good sized red new potatoes
1 tsp. black pepper
1/2 tsp. sea salt
1/2 tbsp. dried parsley or 1 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup of vegetable oil

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
Cut potatoes into 1/2 inch slices. Rinse under cold water in a colander and pat dry with a paper towel. Toss with the  rest of the ingredients. Return to colander and drain off excess oil. Spread out the fries evenly on a baking sheet and bake for about 30-40 minutes or until desired crispiness.

Note: I am a big fan of using extra virgin olive oil in pretty much everything. However, when I'm baking potatoes and want them crispy, vegetable oil works great!
