Description
These crispy garlic Parmesan potato wedges are oven-baked to perfection—golden on the outside and tender on the inside. Packed with savory garlic and cheesy flavor, they make an easy, crowd-pleasing side or appetizer.
Ingredients
- 4 large russet potatoes, sliced into wedges
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a large baking sheet or line with parchment paper.
- Wash and scrub the potatoes well. Cut each potato in half lengthwise, then cut each half into 3-4 wedges, depending on size.
- Place potato wedges in a large bowl. Add olive oil, salt, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and Parmesan cheese. Toss well to coat evenly.
- Arrange wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, skin-side down if possible.
- Bake for 25-35 minutes, turning halfway through, until potatoes are golden brown, crispy, and cooked through.
- Remove from oven and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley, if desired. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, soak potato wedges in cold water for 30 minutes before baking, then dry thoroughly.
- Use freshly grated Parmesan for best flavor and texture.
- Serve with ketchup, ranch dressing, or garlic aioli for dipping.
