Baked Potato Wedges

Baked Potato Wedges are thick-cut russet potato pieces seasoned with olive oil, garlic, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, pepper, and grated Parmesan cheese. These wedges are baked until golden and fork-tender, offering a crispy outside and tender inside. Chopped fresh parsley is sprinkled on top for a bright touch. This recipe provides a flavorful alternative to traditional fries.

Description

Baked Potato Wedges start with russet potatoes cut into eighths and coated evenly by tossing with olive oil and a blend of dry seasonings, including onion and garlic powders, smoked paprika, salt, pepper, and Parmesan cheese. The seasoning bag method ensures thorough coating for consistent flavor on every wedge.

The wedges are spread in a single layer on a foil-lined, greased baking sheet and baked at a high temperature until golden brown and tender. The Parmesan adds a savory crispy edge to the potato surface. Fresh parsley enhances the final presentation and adds a fresh note.

Variations can be made by substituting Romano or Asiago cheese for Parmesan, or replacing parsley with fresh herbs like chives or dill, allowing some customization to the flavor profile. These wedges work well as a side dish or snack.
