Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 teaspoons Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 1 large Jalapeno (seeded and finely diced)
- 1 clove Garlic clove (minced)
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly and cut each into evenly sized wedges (about 8 wedges per potato).
In a large mixing bowl, toss the potato wedges with olive oil, chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until well coated.
Spread the seasoned potato wedges evenly on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overlapping.
Bake for 35-40 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through, until golden brown and crispy on the outside.
While the wedges bake, prepare the cheddar jalapeno dip. In a medium-sized saucepan over low heat, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, and milk. Stir continuously until smooth and warmed through.
Add the shredded cheddar cheese and minced garlic. Stir until the cheese is melted and fully incorporated.
Stir in the diced jalapeno and continue to cook for 1-2 minutes for a spicy kick. Add additional milk if needed to adjust the dip’s consistency.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl, and garnish with chopped fresh cilantro if desired.
Remove the crispy potato wedges from the oven and serve immediately with the warm cheddar jalapeno dip.
