Crispy and flavorful seasoned potato wedges baked to perfection with a blend of garlic, onion, paprika, and kosher salt, offering a delicious and easy side dish perfect for any meal.

Ingredients

Scale

Potatoes

  • 4 medium russet potatoes (or 3 large potatoes)

Seasoning

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 2 tsp kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425˚F to ensure it is hot enough for crispy wedges.
  2. Cut Potatoes: Cut each potato in half lengthwise, then cut each half into 4-6 wedges depending on size for even cooking.
  3. Coat with Oil: Place the potato wedges in a large bowl, drizzle with olive oil and toss well to coat all pieces evenly.
  4. Season the Wedges: In a small bowl, mix garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and kosher salt. Sprinkle this seasoning blend over the wedges and toss again to ensure an even coating.
  5. Arrange and Bake: Lay the potato wedges on a baking sheet skin side down in a single layer for optimal crispness. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes until cooked through and tender.
  6. Broil for Crispiness: Switch your oven to broil and cook the wedges for an additional 2-4 minutes or until they achieve the desired golden brown and crispy texture. Keep a close eye to avoid burning.

Notes

  • For extra crispy wedges, you can soak cut potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before cooking to remove excess starch and then pat dry thoroughly.
  • Feel free to adjust the level of seasoning depending on your taste preferences.
  • Using kosher salt allows for better control of saltiness and texture.
  • Serve these wedges with ketchup, aioli, or your favorite dipping sauce for enhanced flavor.
  • Make sure wedges are evenly spaced on the baking sheet for uniform cooking.
