Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 cup (grated) Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Dried Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons (chopped, optional for garnish) Fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with nonstick cooking spray.
Wash and scrub the Russet potatoes thoroughly, then pat them dry. Leave the skins on for added texture and flavor.
Cut each potato into evenly-sized wedges by first cutting them in half lengthwise, then cutting each half into 3 or 4 wedges, depending on potato size.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, dried Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Toss the potato wedges in the mixture until evenly coated.
Spread the potato wedges out on the baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they are not overlapping.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese generously over the potato wedges, covering them as evenly as possible.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through cooking to ensure they are golden brown and crispy on all sides.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for garnish if desired. Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
