Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly, leaving the skin on. Slice each potato into 8 equal wedges by cutting it in half lengthwise, then each half into quarters.
Place the potato wedges in a large mixing bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Toss to coat evenly.
In a separate bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, dried oregano, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Take each potato wedge and press it gently into the breadcrumb mixture to coat the sides and skin. Place the coated wedges on the prepared baking sheet, skin-side down.
Once all the wedges are coated and arranged on the baking sheet, bake in the preheated oven for 35β40 minutes, or until the wedges are golden brown and crispy. Flip them halfway through baking for even crisping.
Remove the wedges from the oven and let them cool slightly. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley, if desired, before serving.
Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing, sour cream, or ketchup.
