Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1.5 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
Wash and scrub the russet potatoes. Cut them into equal-sized wedges (each potato should yield about 8 wedges).
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss until evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Arrange the potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure none are overlapping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through, until they are golden brown and crisp on the outside.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and evenly sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the hot potato wedges.
Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Take the wedges out of the oven and let them cool slightly. Transfer to a serving plate and garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your cheesy roasted potato wedges!
