Ingredients
- 4 large sweet potatoes , (rinsed) sliced into wedges
- ¼ cup avocado oil or extra virgin olive oil
- ¼ teaspoon granulated garlic
- ½ teaspoon of red pepper flakes
- ½ teaspoon of oregano
- 2 tablespoons Cajun Seasoning , adjust to taste
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt , to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F and position an oven rack in the middle.
- Scrub the potatoes thoroughly, then cut each potato in half lengthwise. Next, cut each half into thirds lengthwise, resulting in 6 long wedges from each potato.
- Place the potato wedges in a large bowl. Add Cajun seasoning, oregano, granulated garlic, red pepper flakes, 4 tablespoons of olive oil, paprika, and kosher salt to the bowl. Toss the potatoes until they are evenly coated with the mixture.
- Grease a rimmed sheet pan with 1 tablespoon of oil (avoid using foil as the potatoes may stick). Arrange the coated potato wedges on the sheet pan in a single layer, placing them with one cut side down.
- Bake the potatoes in the preheated oven until they turn golden brown and become crispy about 45 minutes, turning the potatoes halfway through the cooking time using a flat spatula for even browning.
- Once the potatoes are done, remove them from the oven and taste for seasoning. Adjust the seasoning if needed by adding more kosher salt to taste.
- Transfer the baked potato wedges to a serving platter.
