Ingredients

• 4 large russet potatoes
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.25 cup parmesan cheese (optional)
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.

Step 2

Wash and scrub the russet potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. Leave the skin on for extra texture and flavor.

Step 3

Slice each potato in half lengthwise, then cut each half into 4-6 wedges, depending on the size of the potato. Try to keep the wedges uniform in size for even cooking.

Step 4

Place the potato wedges in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the olive oil over the potatoes and toss them to coat evenly.

Step 5

In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, smoked paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle this seasoning mixture over the potatoes and toss again to coat each wedge evenly.

Step 6

Spread the seasoned potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure none of the wedges are overlapping for optimal crispiness.

Step 7

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.

Step 8

Optional: In the last 5 minutes of baking, sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over the potato wedges for a cheesy, crispy finish.

Step 9

Remove the Jet Potatoes from the oven when they are golden brown and crispy. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired.

Step 10

Serve immediately as a side dish, appetizer, or snack. These potatoes pair wonderfully with your favorite dipping sauces!
