Ingredients
Potatoes
- 3–4 large russet potatoes
Seasonings & Oil
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- ½ cup shredded parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet to ensure the potato wedges do not stick during baking.
- Prepare the potatoes: Slice the russet potatoes into wedges and place them in a large bowl. Toss them with olive oil until they are evenly coated, which will help the wedges crisp up and develop a rich flavor in the oven.
- Season the wedges: In a small bowl, mix together the salt, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Sprinkle this seasoning blend along with the shredded parmesan cheese over the potato wedges, then toss everything together thoroughly so each wedge is evenly coated with the flavorful mixture.
- Arrange on baking sheet: Spread the seasoned potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, placing the wedges skin-side down to promote even baking and crispiness on the edges.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake the potato wedges for 25 to 35 minutes, or until they are golden brown, crispy on the outside, and tender when pierced with a fork.
- Serve: Optionally garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy hot as a delicious side dish or appetizer with your favorite dipping sauces.
Notes
- Make sure the wedges are cut evenly to ensure uniform cooking.
- To make them extra crispy, you can flip the wedges halfway through baking.
- Parmesan can be substituted with nutritional yeast for a dairy-free version.
- Serve with ranch, ketchup, or garlic aioli for added flavor.
