Oven Fries with Roasted Garlic

• Recipe by Jan Birnbaum

The Good News Skin-on potatoes, like the ones used for these crispy, low-fat fries, are high in vitamin C and potassium; they're also a good source of dietary fiber and vitamin B.

Ingredients

1. 3 large Yukon Gold potatoes (1 3/4 pounds), halved lengthwise and cut into 1/2-inch-thick wedges
2. 8 unpeeled garlic cloves
3. 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4. Salt and freshly ground pepper
5. 2 teaspoons chopped thyme
6. 1/4 cup parsley leaves

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 425°. On a large rimmed baking sheet, toss the potatoes and garlic cloves with the olive oil. Spread the potatoes in an even layer, cut sides down. Season with salt and pepper and sprinkle with the chopped thyme. Bake for about 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are browned on the bottom and very crisp. Peel the garlic cloves. Transfer the potatoes and garlic to a platter, sprinkle with the parsley leaves and serve.
