Ingredients
Scale
Potatoes
- 3–4 large russet potatoes
Seasonings
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- ½ cup shredded parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet to prevent sticking.
- Prepare Potato Wedges: Slice the russet potatoes into wedges. Place them into a large bowl and toss with olive oil to evenly coat each wedge.
- Season Potatoes: In a small bowl, combine salt, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Sprinkle this mixture over the oiled potato wedges, then add the shredded Parmesan cheese. Toss everything together thoroughly to ensure even coverage.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Lay the seasoned potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, placing them skin-side down for best texture and crispiness.
- Bake Potatoes: Bake in the preheated oven for 25–35 minutes until the wedges are golden brown on the outside and tender when pierced with a fork. Optionally, garnish with fresh parsley before serving for a pop of color and freshness.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, soak potato wedges in cold water for 30 minutes before drying and seasoning.
- Use fresh Parmesan for better flavor compared to pre-grated cheese.
- Adjust seasoning to taste if you prefer less salt or garlic.
- Serve immediately for best texture; reheating may soften the wedges.
