Ingredients

• 4 pieces Medium Potatoes
• 0 Olive Oil Cooking Spray
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 cup Reduced Fat Cheddar Cheese
• 1.5 cups Low Fat Milk
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 0.25 teaspoon Garlic Powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Onion Powder
• 2 tablespoons Chopped Green Onions (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).

Step 2

Wash and peel the potatoes, then cut them into thick wedges.

Step 3

Place the potato wedges in a large bowl and spray lightly with olive oil cooking spray. Toss to coat evenly.

Step 4

Sprinkle the wedges with salt, black pepper, and paprika, ensuring they are well seasoned.

Step 5

Arrange the potato wedges on a baking sheet in a single layer and bake for 30 minutes, turning halfway through, until they're golden brown and crispy.

Step 6

While the chips are baking, prepare the cheese sauce. In a small saucepan, combine the cornstarch and 1/4 cup of low fat milk, stirring until smooth.

Step 7

Place the saucepan over medium heat and gradually add the remaining low fat milk, stirring constantly until the mixture begins to thicken, about 5 minutes.

Step 8

Stir in the reduced fat cheddar cheese, garlic powder, and onion powder until the cheese is fully melted and the sauce is smooth.

Step 9

Remove the baked potato wedges from the oven and transfer them to a serving plate.

Step 10

Drizzle the warm cheese sauce over the chips and garnish with chopped green onions if desired.

Step 11

Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious low fat cheesy chips!
