Description
Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, these Baked Garlic Parmesan Potato Wedges are seasoned with garlic, Italian herbs, and parmesan cheese, making them a perfect side dish or snack.
Ingredients
- 3–4 large russet potatoes, sliced into wedges
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- ½ cup shredded parmesan cheese
- Optional: fresh parsley or cilantro for garnish
- Optional: ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a large baking sheet and set aside.
- Place the potato wedges in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat evenly.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the salt, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning.
- Sprinkle the shredded parmesan cheese over the potato wedges, tossing to coat. Then, sprinkle with the seasoning mixture and toss again to ensure even coverage.
- Arrange the potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, skin-side down.
- Bake for 25–35 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender and golden brown.
- Garnish with freshly chopped parsley or cilantro, if desired. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, soak sliced potatoes in cold water for up to 24 hours, then dry thoroughly before baking.
- Add a pinch of cayenne or red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
- Use asiago or pecorino romano cheese as a parmesan alternative.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days and reheat in oven or air fryer for best texture.
