Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.25 cup parmesan cheese (optional)
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Wash and scrub the russet potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. Leave the skin on for extra texture and flavor.
Slice each potato in half lengthwise, then cut each half into 4-6 wedges, depending on the size of the potato. Try to keep the wedges uniform in size for even cooking.
Place the potato wedges in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the olive oil over the potatoes and toss them to coat evenly.
In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, smoked paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle this seasoning mixture over the potatoes and toss again to coat each wedge evenly.
Spread the seasoned potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure none of the wedges are overlapping for optimal crispiness.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.
Optional: In the last 5 minutes of baking, sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over the potato wedges for a cheesy, crispy finish.
Remove the Jet Potatoes from the oven when they are golden brown and crispy. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
Serve immediately as a side dish, appetizer, or snack. These potatoes pair wonderfully with your favorite dipping sauces!
