Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. Leave the skin on for extra fiber.
Cut each potato into chunky chip-sized wedges, ensuring they are of even thickness to cook uniformly.
In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, ground black pepper, and salt.
Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss them until they are evenly coated with the seasoned oil mixture.
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and arrange the potato wedges in a single layer, ensuring they do not overlap.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the chips are golden brown and crispy on the outside. Flip the wedges halfway through cooking time for an even crispiness.
Remove from the oven and allow the chips to cool slightly. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve warm as a healthy side dish or a delightful snack with your favorite dip.
