Baked Mexican Potato Skewers

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Baked Mexican Potato Skewers.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 425°F (220°C).

2. Step 2

   While it warms up, grab a baking sheet and line it with aluminum foil for easy cleanup, then give it a light spritz of nonfat cooking spray to prevent sticking.

3. Step 3

   Now, let’s get to the fun part! Using a spiralizer fitted with a straight-flat blade, transform each unpeeled russet potato into long, whimsical spirals.

4. Step 4

   Once you’ve created those delightful shapes, chop each spiral into three shorter pieces to make them easier to handle.

5. Step 5

   Next, take a bamboo skewer and carefully thread it through the center of each potato spiral, gently pushing down to fan out the spirals beautifully.

6. Step 6

   Arrange the skewers on your prepared baking sheet, then give them a generous spray of cooking spray to help them crisp up in the oven.

7. Step 7

   Sprinkle taco seasoning evenly over the top for a burst of flavor that will make your taste buds dance.

8. Step 8

   Slide the baking sheet into the preheated oven and let the magic happen for about 17 to 18 minutes, or until the potatoes turn a lovely golden brown and crispy.

9. Step 9

   When they’re done, take them out and drizzle with sriracha sauce for a spicy kick, then finish with a sprinkle of sea salt to taste.

10. Step 10

    Enjoy your deliciously crispy potato spirals, perfect for snacking or as a fun side dish!.
