4.6 from 68 reviews

Crispy and flavorful Baked Garlic Parmesan Potato Wedges make a perfect side dish with a delicious combination of garlic, parmesan, and Italian herbs. These oven-baked wedges are easy to prepare and offer a healthier alternative to fried potato wedges with a golden, crispy texture and tender inside.

Ingredients

Scale

Potatoes

  • 34 large russet potatoes

Seasoning and Coating

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

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet to prevent sticking and promote even cooking.
  2. Prepare the potato wedges: Slice the russet potatoes into wedges, ensuring they are roughly uniform in size to cook evenly. Place them in a large bowl.
  3. Season the potatoes: Drizzle the olive oil over the potato wedges and toss well to coat each piece thoroughly. In a small bowl, mix salt, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Sprinkle this seasoning mixture along with the shredded parmesan cheese over the wedges, then toss again to ensure even distribution and coverage.
  4. Arrange on baking sheet: Spread the seasoned potato wedges in a single layer on the greased baking sheet, placing them skin-side down for best texture and color.
  5. Bake the wedges: Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 35 minutes or until the wedges turn golden brown and are tender when pierced with a fork. For extra freshness and color, optionally garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

  • Use russet potatoes for the best crispy texture.
  • Cut wedges evenly to ensure uniform cooking.
  • Check for tenderness by piercing with a fork before removing from the oven.
  • For extra crispiness, you can increase oven temperature to 400°F but reduce baking time accordingly.
  • Optional garnishing with fresh parsley adds a fresh flavor and a pop of color.
