Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh oregano leaves
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese (optional)
- 1 as needed Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly coat it with non-stick cooking spray.
Wash and scrub the Yukon Gold potatoes thoroughly. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Cut the potatoes into evenly sized wedges, approximately 1/2 inch thick at the widest part. Place them into a large mixing bowl.
Drizzle the olive oil over the potato wedges and toss to coat evenly.
In a small bowl, mix together the oregano leaves, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle this spice mixture over the potatoes and toss well to ensure all pieces are evenly coated.
Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring the wedges do not overlap for optimal crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, flip each potato wedge using tongs or a spatula to ensure even cooking.
Return the potatoes to the oven and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy on the edges.
If using Parmesan cheese, sprinkle it over the hot potatoes immediately after removing them from the oven.
Allow the potatoes to cool for 2-3 minutes before serving. Garnish with additional oregano if desired. Enjoy your Oven Fried Oregano Potatoes as a flavorful side dish!
