Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

Wash and peel the potatoes as desired.

Cut the potatoes into even sticks, about 1/4 inch thick.

Soak the potato sticks in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

Drain the potatoes and pat them dry with a clean towel.

In a large bowl, toss the potato sticks with olive oil until evenly coated.

Sprinkle salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika over the potatoes.

Toss again to ensure the seasonings are evenly distributed.

Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.

Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
