Place the fries in a large bowl, drizzle with the olive oil and then toss to coat with your hands. Sprinkle on the paprika and garlic powder and toss again until well-coated. Spread fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets.
08

Bake in preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until the fries are crisp and golden brown.
