Ingredients
- 4 large 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 Parmesan cheese (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Chopped parsley (for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
Step 2
Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry. Leave the skin on for extra crispiness and nutrients.
Step 3
Cut each potato in half lengthwise, then cut each half into 3-4 wedges, depending on the size of the potato. Aim for evenly sized wedges to ensure even cooking.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. If you want a cheesy twist, mix in the Parmesan cheese at this stage.
Step 5
Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss them until they are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Step 6
Spread the coated potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each wedge for proper browning.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Step 8
Remove the wedges from the oven and let them cool slightly. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
Step 9
Serve warm as a side dish or snack with ketchup, ranch dressing, or your favorite dipping sauce.
