- 3-4 medium-sized sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika

- 1/2 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Fresh parsley (optional, for a finishing touch)

2. Cut Into Fries:

Slice the sweet potatoes into thin strips, aiming for similar sizes to ensure they cook evenly. Around 1/4 inch wide is a good guideline.

4. Preheat the Oven:
Heat your oven to 425°F (220°C). While it's warming up, line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
5. Arrange on the Sheet:

Lay out your seasoned sweet potato fries in a single layer on the baking sheet. Don't pack them too tightly; this helps them get crispy.
6. Bake to Perfection:
Pop the sheet into the preheated oven and let them cook for roughly 25-30 minutes, turning them over halfway through. Keep an eye on them—they're ready when they're golden and crispy.
