Ingredients
  

4 medium russet potatoes

¼ cup olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

½ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Optional: ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (for added heat)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

    Prepare the Potatoes: Wash and scrub the russet potatoes thoroughly. Leave the skin on for extra texture and nutrients. Cut each potato into wedges (about 8 wedges per potato).

      Make the Coating: In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Whisk together until well combined.

        Coat the Wedges: Add the potato wedges to the bowl with the seasoned oil. Toss them gently until all the wedges are evenly coated in the mixture.

          Add Parmesan: Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the coated wedges. Toss again to ensure the cheese sticks to the potatoes.

            Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the potato wedges out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded for optimal crispiness.

              Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through. Bake until the wedges are golden brown and crispy.

                Garnish and Serve: Once done, remove the wedges from the oven and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauces like ranch, ketchup, or aioli.
