Ingredients
Scale
Potatoes
- 4 large Russet potatoes, cut into wedges
Seasoning
- 2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 2 tsp Italian seasoning
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 cup freshly shredded Parmesan cheese
Garnish
- Freshly chopped parsley, for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the Potatoes: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash and dry the russet potatoes thoroughly. Slice each potato in half lengthwise, then cut each half into 3-4 wedges. Place the wedges in a large mixing bowl and drizzle with olive oil, tossing to coat evenly.
- Season the Potatoes: In a small bowl, combine salt, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Sprinkle the seasoning mix over the potato wedges and toss to coat all the wedges evenly. Add the freshly shredded Parmesan cheese and toss again to distribute the cheese thoroughly.
- Bake the Potatoes: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking. Arrange the potato wedges in a single layer on the baking sheet with the skin side down. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 35 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through the baking time to ensure even crisping until they turn golden brown and tender when pierced.
- Garnish and Serve: Once baked, remove the potato wedges from the oven and transfer them onto a serving platter. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a fresh, vibrant touch. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauces for an irresistible appetizer or side dish.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, soak the cut potato wedges in cold water for 30 minutes before drying and seasoning.
- You can substitute Parmesan with Pecorino Romano for a sharper flavor.
- These wedges are best served fresh out of the oven to maintain their crisp texture.
- Feel free to adjust garlic powder and Italian seasoning quantities to taste.
