Ingredients
  

4 medium russet potatoes, thoroughly washed and scrubbed

3 tablespoons olive oil

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

½ teaspoon sea salt (adjust to taste)

½ teaspoon black pepper

½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped (for garnish)

Optional: ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (for an extra kick)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). For easier cleanup, line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

    Prepare the Potatoes: Slice each washed potato in half lengthwise. Then, cut each half into wedges, aiming for approximately 6 to 8 wedges per potato depending on their size. Ensuring uniform thickness will help them cook evenly.

      Season the Potatoes: In a large mixing bowl, combine the potato wedges with olive oil, minced garlic, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, sea salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes (if desired). Toss the wedges thoroughly, making sure each piece is evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.

        Incorporate the Parmesan: Evenly sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the seasoned potato wedges. Toss the wedges gently once more, ensuring the cheese clings to the potatoes well.

          Arrange on Baking Sheet: Lay the potato wedges out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure they’re not overlapping, as this will promote crispiness during baking.

            Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the wedges for approximately 30-35 minutes. Remember to flip the wedges halfway through to achieve a perfectly golden brown and crispy exterior.

              Garnish and Serve: Once the wedges are done and have reached a delightful golden color, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes. Just before serving, sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a vibrant touch. Enjoy these crunchy delights warm, paired with your favorite dipping sauce!
