Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly coat it with cooking spray.
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly under running water. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Cut each potato in half lengthwise and then into quarters to make wedge shapes. Aim for even thickness to ensure even cooking.
In a large bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a seasoning blend.
Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss them until they are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Spread the seasoned wedges out on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, making sure they are not overcrowded, which will help them crisp up better.
Bake the wedges in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, turning them halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy outside and tender inside.
Once baked, remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the hot wedges for a cheesy finish.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving for a pop of color and freshness.
Serve the baked potato wedges hot, as a side dish or a delicious snack, with your favorite dips or sauces.
