Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Pat them dry with a kitchen towel. Leave the skin on for a rustic texture.
Cut each potato into evenly sized wedges. Make sure all pieces are roughly the same size for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic cloves, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, salt, black pepper, and paprika (if using). Mix well to form a flavorful marinade.
Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss them until they are evenly coated with the herb and oil mixture.
Arrange the potato wedges on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they do not overlap for maximum crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning.
Once the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the outside, remove them from the oven and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for garnish.
Serve hot as a side dish or enjoy them as a snack with your favorite dipping sauce.
