4 medium russet potatoes, unpeeled (about 1 3/4 pounds)
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 garlic cloves, minced
3/4 large red jalapeno chile, seeded & membranes removed
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
salt
Chipotle-Lime Yogurt Dipping Sauce
1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 chipotle pepper, seeded and minced
1 teaspoon adobo sauce (from chipotle can)
2 teaspoons fresh lime juice

1
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
2
Cut potatoes lengthwise into slices that are 1/3-inch thick and then cut each slice into 1/3-inch thick strips. Dry the potatoes between two kitchen towels. (Make sure the fries are bone dry.) In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, 3 tablespoons olive oil and 1 teaspoon kosher salt. (Don't over oil or they will become soggy.).
3
Divide the potatoes between two baking sheets lined with parchment paper, spread into a single layer. Bake until the potatoes are golden brown, about 40 minutes, turning the potatoes every 10 minutes, and rotating the racks halfway through baking. Note: Mine took less than 40 minutes and turning, also, prevents sticking.
4
Heat 1 teaspoon olive in a small nonstick skillet set over medium heat. Add garlic and jalapenos and cook until fragrant, about 1 minutes. Take care not to burn the garlic.
5
Place the cooked potatoes in a large bowl and toss with garlic, peppers, and cilantro. Taste and season with additional salt, if necessary.
6
To make sauce: In a medium bowl, stir to combine yogurt, mayonnaise, chipotle pepper, adobo sauce and lime juice. Serve with fries.
