Calories: 196kcal
Ingredients
- 1 (18 ounce or 510 gram) tube prepared polenta
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cut your polenta in half, width-wise. Now slice each half lengthwise into 4 slabs of equal thickness, then slice each slab into 4 strips. This should give you 32 fries that are about 3 inches by ½ inch.
- Arrange the fries on the baking sheet in a single layer, then drizzle them with the oil. Rub the oil in to evenly coat the fries.
- Sprinkle the fries with rosemary, thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Bake the fries until they're crispy and just starting to brown around the edges, about 20 minutes.
- Let the fries cool for a few minutes, then serve.
