Ingredients

  • 4 large Russet potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Dried parsley
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean-up.

Step 2

Wash the potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. Leave the skin on for added fiber and nutrients.

Step 3

Cut each potato in half lengthwise. Then cut each half into wedges by cutting at an angle, aiming for about 8 wedges per potato.

Step 4

In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form the seasoning mixture.

Step 5

Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss them with the seasoning mixture. Ensure the wedges are evenly coated.

Step 6

Arrange the seasoned potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure there is enough space between each wedge so they bake evenly and become crispy.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for about 35 to 40 minutes. Halfway through, flip each wedge for even browning.

Step 8

Check for doneness by inserting a fork into the wedges; they should be tender inside and crispy outside.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving.

Step 10

Serve warm with your favorite heart-healthy dip or enjoy them on their own.
