Ingredients

• 4 medium Golden potatoes
• 0 as needed Olive oil spray
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 tablespoon Chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Wash the golden potatoes thoroughly under running water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

Step 3

Cut each potato into wedges, aiming for about 6-8 wedges per potato depending on size.

Step 4

Lightly spray a baking sheet with olive oil spray to prevent sticking.

Step 5

Arrange the potato wedges on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring there is space between each piece for even cooking.

Step 6

Lightly spray the potatoes with olive oil spray, ensuring an even coverage.

Step 7

In a small bowl, mix together the salt, ground black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.

Step 8

Sprinkle the seasoning mixture evenly over the potato wedges.

Step 9

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes. Turn the wedges halfway through the baking time to ensure they get golden and crispy on both sides.

Step 10

Check for doneness by piercing the largest wedge with a fork; it should pass through easily indicating the potatoes are tender inside.

Step 11

Once baked, remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool slightly.

Step 12

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving to add a fresh flavor and visual appeal.
