Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with non-stick cooking spray.
Scrub the potatoes thoroughly to clean them, then pat them dry. Cut each potato into 8 even wedges.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the potato wedges with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Arrange the seasoned potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are spaced apart for even cooking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through, until golden brown and crispy on the outside.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the hot potato wedges.
Return the potato wedges to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Transfer the potato wedges to a serving platter and garnish with the chopped fresh parsley.
Serve immediately while hot and enjoy!
