Baked French Fries With Chile Peppers & Cilantro

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

2. 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. In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, 3 tablespoons olive oil, and 1 teaspoon kosher salt. Divide the potatoes between two baking sheets lined with parchment paper, spread into a single layer.

3. 3

   Bake until the potatoes are golden brown, about 40 minutes, turning the potatoes every 10 minutes, and rotating the racks halfway through baking.

4. 4

   Heat the remaining 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. 5

   Place the cooked potatoes in a large bowl and toss with garlic, peppers, and cilantro. Taste (careful - they'll be hot!) and season with additional salt, if necessary. Serve.
