Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves Fresh garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Wash and dry the russet potatoes thoroughly. Leave the skin on for texture and nutrients.
Cut each potato into even wedges. Start by cutting the potato in half lengthwise, then cut each half into 3-4 wedges, depending on the size of the potato.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, smoked paprika, black pepper, onion powder, dried thyme, dried rosemary, and lemon zest.
Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss them to coat evenly with the seasoning mixture.
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3 minutes.
Arrange the potato wedges in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not overcrowded for even cooking. You may need to cook them in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
Cook the wedges in the air fryer at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking time for even crisping.
Check for doneness by piercing a wedge with a fork; it should be tender inside and crispy on the outside.
Once cooked, remove the potato wedges from the air fryer and transfer them to a serving plate.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving for a burst of freshness and color.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious, low sodium crispy potato wedges!
