Ingredients

• 4 large Russet potatoes
• 4 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 tablespoons Sesame seeds
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.

Step 2

Wash the potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry. Leaving the skin on, cut each potato into evenly sized wedges, about 8 wedges per potato.

Step 3

Place the potato wedges in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle them with olive oil and toss to coat evenly.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Sprinkle the sesame seed mixture over the potatoes and toss again to ensure the wedges are evenly coated.

Step 6

Arrange the potato wedges on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, making sure they don’t overlap for even cooking.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside.

Step 8

Remove the wedges from the oven and let them cool for 2-3 minutes. If desired, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and added flavor.

Step 9

Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!
