Description

Baked Potato Wedges are a classic comfort food featuring crispy edges and fluffy centers, baked to golden perfection with simple seasoning for a healthier alternative to fries.


Ingredients

  1. 4 large russet potatoes
    3 tablespoons olive oil
    1 teaspoon garlic powder
    1 teaspoon smoked paprika (or regular paprika)
    1 teaspoon dried oregano or thyme
    Salt, to taste
    Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
    Optional: grated Parmesan cheese or fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

  1. Wash the potatoes thoroughly and cut each into 8 wedges.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the potato wedges with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Arrange the wedges in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  4. Bake for 35-40 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through, until golden brown and crispy on the edges.
  5. Remove from the oven and, if desired, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese or fresh parsley.
  6. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

  1. Add chili powder or cayenne pepper for a spicy kick.
  2. Toss with rosemary or thyme for an herby flavor.
  3. Use sweet potatoes instead of russets for a sweeter twist.
  4. Sprinkle with nutritional yeast for a cheesy, vegan-friendly option.
  5. Serve with garlic aioli, ketchup, or ranch dressing for dipping.
  6. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  7. Reheat in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for 10-15 minutes or warm in the air fryer.
