You achieve restaurant-style potato wedges with a crispy exterior and fluffy interior using this simple oven-baking method, seasoned with garlic and Parmesan cheese.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large Russet potatoes, scrubbed
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Cut each potato lengthwise into 8 equal wedges. You do not need to peel them.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the potato wedges with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika until they are evenly coated.
  4. Arrange the seasoned wedges on the prepared baking sheets in a single layer. Do not overcrowd the pans; use two sheets if necessary to promote crisping.
  5. Bake for 20 minutes.
  6. Remove the sheets from the oven and carefully flip each wedge.
  7. Return to the oven and bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until the wedges are golden brown and crisp.
  8. Remove the wedges from the oven. Immediately sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the hot wedges and toss gently to coat.
  9. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, soak the cut wedges in cold water for 30 minutes, then dry them completely before tossing with oil and seasoning.
  • If you are using an air fryer, cook in batches at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
  • Serve these potato wedges with ranch dressing or a simple sour cream dip for the best flavor.
