These Baked Garlic Parmesan Potato Wedges are a simple yet flavorful side dish, featuring crispy russet potato wedges coated in a delightful blend of garlic, Italian herbs, and Parmesan cheese. Perfect as a snack, appetizer, or accompaniment to any meal, they bake to golden perfection with a tender inside and crunchy exterior.

Ingredients

Potatoes

  • 3-4 large russet potatoes, sliced into wedges

Seasoning & Coating

  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • ½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese

Optional Garnishes & Dips

  • Fresh parsley or cilantro, chopped
  • Ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing for dipping

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a large baking sheet and set it aside to prepare for baking the potato wedges.
  2. Prepare potatoes: Place the potato wedges in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and toss thoroughly to coat each wedge evenly with oil.
  3. Mix seasonings: In a small bowl, whisk together salt, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning to create a flavorful seasoning blend.
  4. Coat potatoes: Sprinkle the shredded Parmesan cheese over the potato wedges, tossing them gently to coat evenly. Then, sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the wedges and toss again to ensure every piece is well seasoned.
  5. Arrange on baking sheet: Place the potato wedges on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, with the skin side down to crisp nicely during baking.
  6. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-35 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender and golden brown on the outside.
  7. Garnish and serve: Once baked, sprinkle freshly chopped parsley (or cilantro) over the wedges. Serve warm with ranch or blue cheese dressing on the side for dipping, if desired.

Notes

  • Ensure the potato wedges are cut evenly to promote uniform cooking.
  • Use fresh Parmesan cheese for the best flavor and melting texture.
  • For extra crispiness, you can flip the wedges halfway through baking.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat in the oven for best results.
  • Adjust seasoning quantities to taste, especially salt, if using salted Parmesan cheese.
