Ingredients
Scale
Primary Ingredients:
- 4 large russet potatoes
- ½ cup grated parmesan cheese
- 4 cloves garlic
Seasoning Blend:
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon paprika
Supporting Ingredients:
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Crank your oven to a sizzling 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Scrub those russet potatoes clean, then slice each one into 8 perfect wedge-shaped sections.
- Dump potato wedges into a spacious mixing bowl where they’ll get their flavor transformation.
- Drizzle 3 tablespoons of olive oil across the potatoes and toss until every wedge gleams with a golden sheen.
- Finely chop 4 garlic cloves into tiny pieces and scatter them over the potatoes.
- Shake 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, and ½ teaspoon paprika across the potatoes.
- Tumble and mix until each potato wedge is completely coated with seasoning.
- Arrange your wedges on the baking sheet with their skin sides facing down, giving them plenty of breathing room.
- Slide the baking sheet into the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes until edges turn a gorgeous golden brown and crisp up.
- Pull the sheet from the oven and immediately shower the hot wedges with ½ cup grated parmesan cheese.
- Let the potatoes rest for 3-5 minutes so the cheese can melt slightly and get all dreamy.
- Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of fresh chopped parsley over the top for a pop of color and freshness.
Notes
- Patting the potato wedges dry before seasoning helps create extra crispy edges that everyone loves.
- Cutting wedges into equal sizes ensures even cooking and consistent texture across the entire batch.
- Using fresh garlic instead of dried garlic powder delivers a more vibrant, robust flavor profile.
- Placing wedges skin-side down on the baking sheet prevents sticking and helps potatoes develop a perfect golden-brown crust.
