Ingredients
Scale
- 3–4 large russet potatoes, sliced into wedges
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- 1/2 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 it aside.
- Prepare the potatoes: Place the potato wedges in a large bowl. Drizzle them with olive oil and toss to coat evenly.
- Season the potatoes: In a small bowl, whisk together the salt, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Sprinkle the shredded Parmesan cheese over the potato wedges and toss to coat. Then, sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the potatoes and toss again until evenly coated.
- Bake the potatoes: Arrange the potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet with the skin sides down. Bake for 25-35 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden and fork-tender.
- Garnish and serve: Once baked, sprinkle the potato wedges with freshly chopped parsley or cilantro. Serve with ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, flip the potato wedges halfway through baking.
- For a spicier version, add a pinch of paprika or cayenne pepper to the seasoning mix.
- If you prefer a cheesier taste, you can sprinkle additional Parmesan cheese over the potatoes during the last 5 minutes of baking.
- Fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme can be added for a different flavor profile.
