Ingredients
- 4 medium red potatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
How to Make Crispy Roasted Potato Wedges
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Wash and scrub the red potatoes thoroughly. Cut each potato into wedges by slicing them in half lengthwise and then cutting each half into 3-4 wedges, depending on the potato’s size.
- In a large bowl, combine the potato wedges with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss well to ensure all the wedges are evenly coated.
- Spread the potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure they are not overcrowded, as this will help them crisp up nicely.
- Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Once done, remove the wedges from the oven and immediately toss with the chopped parsley and rosemary while they are still hot.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
Tips for the Best Results
- Cut the potato wedges evenly to ensure they cook at the same rate.
- For extra crispiness, soak the potato wedges in cold water for 30 minutes before seasoning. Drain and dry them thoroughly before adding oil and spices.
- Keep an eye on the wedges during the last few minutes of cooking to prevent burning.
Easy Variations
- Spice it up: Add cayenne pepper or chili powder for a kick.
- Cheese lovers: Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the wedges during the last 5 minutes of roasting.
- Herb swap: Try using fresh thyme or oregano instead of parsley and rosemary for a different flavor profile.
