Crispy Garlic Parmesan Potato Wedges: Irresistibly Crunchy!
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly, then cut them into wedges (about 8 wedges per potato).
- In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well mixed.
- Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss them in the oil and spice mixture until they are evenly coated.
- Spread the potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, then remove from the oven and sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the wedges.
- Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the wedges are golden brown and crispy.
- If desired, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley before serving for a pop of color and flavor.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, soak the potato wedges in cold water for 30 minutes before seasoning and baking.
- Try adding different seasonings like Italian herbs or cayenne pepper for a spicy kick.
