Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C).
Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry with a clean towel.
Cut each potato into wedges by slicing it in half lengthwise, then cut each half into 3-4 wedges depending on the size of the potato.
Place the potato wedges into a large bowl and add olive oil. Toss to coat the potatoes evenly with the oil.
In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, oregano, and black pepper.
Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the potato wedges and toss again until the wedges are well coated with the spices.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Arrange the seasoned potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not crowded for even cooking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, turning the wedges halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
Remove from the oven and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for added flavor and freshness.
Serve immediately, garnished with a lemon wedge for a touch of citrus zest.
