Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly under running water. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towel.
Cut each potato into evenly-sized wedges or chunks, approximately 1/2 inch thick, for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix well to create the seasoning blend.
Add the potato wedges to the seasoning mixture and toss until all pieces are evenly coated with the oil and spices.
Spread the potatoes out on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, making sure they aren’t overlapping for maximum crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning.
Remove the potatoes from the oven when they are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender inside.
Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the baked potatoes for a burst of flavor and garnish.
Serve immediately as a side dish or snack. Enjoy!
