Ingredients

• 4 medium Russet potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 1 whole Zest of lemon
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)
• 1 optional Non-stick cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly to remove dirt. Keep the skin on for added texture and nutrients.

Step 2

Cut each potato into wedges by first slicing it in half lengthwise, then slicing each half into 3 or 4 wedges depending on the size of the potato.

Step 3

Place the potato wedges in a large bowl and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towel to remove excess moisture.

Step 4

In a small mixing bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, dried oregano, dried thyme, lemon zest, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to create a flavorful seasoning mixture.

Step 5

Pour the seasoning mixture over the potato wedges and toss thoroughly to coat every piece. Use your hands or a spatula to ensure even coverage.

Step 6

If cooking on a grill: Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Lightly spray the grill grates with non-stick cooking spray or brush with a little oil. Arrange the potato wedges on the grill in a single layer. Cook for 12-15 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 12-15 minutes, or until crispy and golden brown, with grill marks. Keep an eye on them to ensure they don’t burn.

Step 7

If cooking on a stovetop: Heat a large non-stick skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Coat the pan lightly with non-stick cooking spray or a drizzle of oil. Add the potato wedges in a single layer, working in batches if necessary. Cook for 10-12 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 10-12 minutes, or until crispy and golden brown.

Step 8

Transfer the cooked potato wedges to a serving plate. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for an extra burst of flavor and color.

Step 9

Serve immediately as a side dish with your favorite dipping sauce or enjoy them on their own!
