Crispy, golden baked potato wedges seasoned with garlic, onion, smoked paprika, and a hint of black pepper. Perfectly roasted to tender perfection, these wedges make a flavorful and easy side dish, optionally garnished with fresh parsley and Parmesan cheese for an extra burst of taste.

Ingredients

Potatoes and Seasoning

  • 4 medium russet potatoes (about 2 pounds), cut into wedges
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1½ teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt (plus more to taste)
  • ¾ teaspoon onion powder
  • ¾ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Optional Garnishes

  • Chopped fresh parsley, for sprinkling
  • Grated Parmesan cheese, for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Baking Sheets: Preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper to ensure the wedges don’t stick and bake evenly.
  2. Season the Potatoes: In a large bowl, toss the potato wedges with olive oil, garlic powder, sea salt, onion powder, smoked paprika, and freshly ground black pepper until each wedge is evenly coated with the seasoning blend.
  3. Arrange and Roast: Spread the seasoned potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets, making sure they are not overcrowded. Roast in the oven for 40 to 45 minutes, flipping the wedges and rotating the pans halfway through (around 20 minutes) to ensure even cooking and crispiness. Cooking time may vary slightly depending on wedge size.
  4. Finish and Serve: Once the wedges are tender and golden brown around the edges, remove from the oven. If desired, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley and grated Parmesan cheese. Season with additional salt to taste before serving.

Notes

  • Cut potatoes into evenly sized wedges to ensure uniform cooking.
  • Flipping and rotating halfway through roasting promotes even browning and crispy texture.
  • Use parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
  • For a dairy-free version, skip the Parmesan cheese garnish.
  • These wedges are best served fresh out of the oven to maintain crispiness.
