Crispy, golden, and utterly satisfying, these Oven Potato Wedges are a healthier, homemade twist on a classic comfort food, perfect for meal prep or a quick snack. Made with hearty Russet potatoes, a flavorful blend of garlic powder, paprika, and oregano, and optionally topped with Parmesan cheese, these wedges are baked to perfection—no frying necessary! With the skins left on for added texture and nutrients, they offer a delightful crunch on the outside while remaining tender on the inside. This versatile Once A Month Cooking (OAMC) recipe also makes freezer-friendly potato wedges, so you can enjoy their irresistible crispiness in minutes with simple reheating. Whether served as a side dish, snack, or party appetizer, these seasoned wedges are a crowd-pleaser your family will love.
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or lightly spray with cooking spray.
Wash the potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry. Leave the skins on for added flavor and texture.
Cut each potato in half lengthwise, then cut each half into 4-6 wedges, depending on the size of the potato.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir to create a seasoning mixture.
Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss until each wedge is evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Arrange the potato wedges on the prepared baking sheets in a single layer, making sure they are not overlapping for even cooking.
Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through the cooking time, until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Optional: Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the wedges immediately after removing them from the oven for extra flavor.
Allow the wedges to cool completely if freezing for OAMC (Once A Month Cooking). Spread the cooled wedges on a baking sheet and freeze until solid. Once frozen, transfer them to an airtight container or freezer-safe bag for long-term storage.
To reheat, bake the frozen wedges in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes or until heated through and crisp.
