Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece medium-sized potato
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with oil to prevent sticking.
Wash the potato thoroughly and pat it dry. Leave the skin on for extra crispiness and flavor.
Cut the potato in half lengthwise, then slice each half into wedge-shaped pieces. Aim for uniform sizes to ensure even cooking.
Place the potato wedges in a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat.
In a small bowl, mix together the smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.
Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over the potato wedges. Toss again to coat all sides of the wedges with the spices.
Arrange the wedges on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, making sure they are not overlapping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through to ensure even crisping. They are done when they are golden brown and crisp on the outside and tender on the inside.
Remove the wedges from the oven and let them cool slightly. If desired, sprinkle with fresh parsley for garnish.
Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy your Solo Hot Potato Wedges!
