Ingredients
Scale
Potatoes
- 3–4 large russet potatoes, sliced into wedges
Seasoning & Coating
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- ½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
Optional Garnish & Serving
- Fresh parsley or cilantro for garnish
- Ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a large baking sheet to prevent sticking.
- Coat Potatoes: In a large bowl, toss the potato wedges with olive oil until they are evenly coated to ensure they crisp nicely during baking.
- Prepare Seasoning: In a small bowl, mix together salt, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning to create a flavorful seasoning blend.
- Season Potatoes: Sprinkle the seasoning mixture and shredded Parmesan cheese over the potato wedges, then toss well to coat all wedges thoroughly.
- Arrange Wedges: Place the seasoned potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet with the skin-side down to help them crisp up.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-35 minutes or until the wedges are golden brown and fork-tender, flipping halfway if desired for even cooking.
- Serve: Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro, and serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce like ranch or blue cheese dressing.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, soak potato wedges in cold water for 30 minutes before baking and pat dry thoroughly.
- Adjust garlic powder and seasoning based on taste preference.
- Parmesan cheese adds a savory crust but can be omitted for a lighter option.
- These wedges can be reheated in the oven or air fryer to restore crispness.
- Serve as a side for burgers, grilled chicken, or enjoy as a snack.
