Ingredients

Scale

Potatoes

  • 4 large russet potatoes

Seasonings & Coating

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs (oregano, basil, thyme blend)
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Optional Garnish

  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prep the Potatoes: Wash and scrub the russet potatoes thoroughly. Cut each potato into evenly sized wedges to ensure they bake uniformly with a crispy outside and tender inside.
  2. Seasoning Mix: In a large bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, grated parmesan cheese, dried Italian herbs, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly to create a flavorful coating.
  3. Toss the Potato Wedges: Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss gently but thoroughly until every wedge is evenly coated with the garlicky, cheesy blend.
  4. Arrange and Bake: Spread the coated wedges in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet to prevent sticking. Bake in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 25-30 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the wedges for color and freshness. Serve warm with your favorite dips.

Notes

  • Cut potato wedges uniformly for even cooking and optimal crispiness.
  • Pat potatoes dry thoroughly after washing to help oil and seasoning stick better.
  • Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and ease clean-up.
  • Do not overcrowd the baking sheet; give wedges space for hot air circulation.
  • Turn wedges halfway through baking for even browning.
  • Use freshly grated parmesan cheese for best texture and flavor.
