Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
Wash the potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry. Leave the skin on for extra texture and flavor, or peel them if preferred.
Cut the potatoes into evenly sized wedges or cubes, about 1/2-inch thick, to ensure they cook uniformly.
Place the potato pieces in a large mixing bowl and drizzle with the olive oil. Toss well to coat all the potatoes with oil.
In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle the spice mixture over the potatoes and toss again to evenly coat.
Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding to help the potatoes crisp up properly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then remove the tray and flip the potatoes with a spatula to ensure even cooking.
Return the potatoes to the oven and bake for another 20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
If using Parmesan cheese, sprinkle it over the potatoes during the last 5 minutes of baking for added flavor.
Once cooked, remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool slightly. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, before serving.
Serve immediately and enjoy your crispy, oven-fried potatoes!
