Ingredients
- 4 large russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. Leave the skin on for added fiber.
Step 3
Cut each potato in half lengthwise, then into quarters, and finally into eighths to form wedges. Try to keep them as similar in size as possible for even cooking.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, dried oregano, ground black pepper, and salt. Stir well to combine.
Step 5
Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss them thoroughly to ensure they are well-coated with the seasoning mixture.
Step 6
Arrange the seasoned wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they do not overlap.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Then, using tongs or a spatula, flip each wedge over to brown the other side evenly.
Step 8
Return the wedges to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
Step 9
Remove the potatoes from the oven and drizzle with lemon juice. Sprinkle with fresh parsley for a burst of flavor and garnish.
Step 10
Serve hot as a side dish or enjoy them as a snack!
