Ingredients
Scale
Potatoes
- 3–4 large russet potatoes
Seasoning and Toppings
- 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 prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
- Prepare the potatoes: Slice the russet potatoes into wedges and place them in a large bowl. Toss the wedges with olive oil to evenly coat each piece.
- Mix the seasoning: In a small bowl, combine salt, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Sprinkle this seasoning mix over the potato wedges along with the shredded Parmesan cheese. Toss everything together thoroughly to ensure the wedges are evenly coated.
- Arrange on baking sheet: Lay the seasoned potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet with the skin-side down for extra crispiness.
- Bake: Bake the wedges in the preheated oven for 25 to 35 minutes until they turn golden brown and are tender when pierced with a fork.
- Optional garnish and serve: Optionally, garnish the wedges with fresh parsley before serving to add a pop of color and fresh flavor.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, soak potato wedges in cold water for 30 minutes before cooking and pat dry.
- Use fresh Parmesan cheese for better melting and flavor.
- Adjust seasoning quantities to your preference.
- Chilling the wedges in the fridge for 10-15 minutes before baking can improve crispiness.
- Serve with a dipping sauce such as ranch or aioli for added flavor.
