Homemade Pizza Seasoning + Pizza Fries

A parmesan-spiked pizza seasoning blend that smells like a pizzeria, shaken over hot crispy fries and crisped again in the oven. Serve with fresh parmesan and a side of pizza sauce for dipping.

Ingredients

For the pizza seasoning (single serve)

  • 2 tablespoonsgrated parmesan · fresh or the shaker kind
  • 1 teaspoonItalian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoongarlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoononion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoonpaprika
  • 1/2 teaspoonsalt
  • 1/4 teaspoonblack pepper
  • 1/4 teaspooncrushed red pepper flakes

For the pizza fries

  • —frozen french fries
  • —fresh parmesan · for topping
  • —pizza sauce · for dipping

Steps

  1. 1

    Bake the french fries in the oven until crispy.

  2. 2

    Combine the parmesan, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes. Measure carefully so the blend tastes the same every time.

  3. 3

    Shake or stir the blend together until evenly mixed.

  4. 4

    While the fries are still very hot, shake the pizza seasoning all over the top and toss to coat.

  5. 5

    Return the fries to the oven for a moment so the parmesan can crisp.

  6. 6

    Plate the fries, top with a little fresh parmesan, and serve with pizza sauce for dipping.

Creator's notes

Because the blend contains parmesan, store it in the fridge rather than the spice cabinet. Jessica makes a triple or quadruple batch in an old seasoning container and uses it on chicken and garlic pizza bread too — not all store-bought pizza seasonings contain parmesan, but hers does.
