Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large potatoes (russet or Yukon Gold)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and position a rack in the center.
- Wash and dry the potatoes, then cut each into wedges of roughly the same thickness.
- In a large bowl, combine the potato wedges, olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper, tossing until evenly coated.
- Arrange the wedges in a single layer on a baking sheet, ensuring space between them for air circulation.
- Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, turning the wedges halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle grated Parmesan over the hot wedges, adding chopped parsley if desired. Serve immediately.
Notes
For additional garlic flavor, substitute half the garlic powder with minced fresh garlic. For a dairy-free option, use nutritional yeast instead of Parmesan.
