Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Scrub the russet potatoes clean under running water. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Step 3
Cut each potato into wedges by first halving them lengthwise, then cutting each half into 4 wedges. You should get about 8 wedges per potato.
Step 4
Place the potato wedges into a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat evenly.
Step 5
In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt. Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the potato wedges and toss again until all wedges are coated with the spices.
Step 6
Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they aren’t overcrowded to allow even baking.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving platter.
Step 9
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Step 10
Serve immediately as a side dish or snack.
