Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Dried rosemary
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Scrub the potatoes thoroughly under running water. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Cut each potato into evenly-sized wedges. Aim for about 6-8 wedges per potato so they cook evenly.
Place the potato wedges in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the olive oil over the top and toss to coat evenly.
In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, paprika, dried rosemary, salt, and black pepper.
Sprinkle the seasoning mix over the potato wedges and toss until each piece is well-coated in the seasonings.
Arrange the potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure the wedges are not overlapping to ensure crispness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Then, use a spatula to carefully flip each wedge over to ensure even browning.
Continue baking for another 20-25 minutes, or until the wedges are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
Remove the baked spuds from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce or as a side dish to complement your main course.
