Ingredients:
  1. 4 large russet potatoes, washed and cut into wedges
  2. 1/4 cup olive oil
  3. 3 cloves garlic, minced
  4. 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  5. 1 tsp paprika
  6. 1 tsp dried oregano
  7. 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  8. 1/2 tsp onion powder
  9. Salt and black pepper, to taste
  10. Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Instructions:
1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
2. Prepare the Potato Wedges:
Cut the potatoes into wedges (about 8 wedges per potato) and soak them in cold water for 20-30 minutes. This helps remove excess starch for extra crispiness.
Drain and pat the wedges dry with a clean kitchen towel.
3. Season the Potatoes:
In a large bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, Parmesan cheese, paprika, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Add the potato wedges and toss until evenly coated.
4. Arrange on Baking Sheet:
Place the seasoned potato wedges on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, skin-side down.
5. Bake:
Bake for 35-40 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the wedges are golden brown and crispy.
6. Serve:
Sprinkle the baked potato wedges with additional Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce (like ranch or garlic aioli).
These Baked Garlic Parmesan Potato Wedges are crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and bursting with garlicky, cheesy flavor. A perfect side dish or snack!
