Introduction
Looking for the perfect side dish or snack? These oven-roasted parmesan herb potato wedges are an easy way to enjoy crispy, flavorful potatoes without frying. Coated with herbs, garlic, and parmesan, they’re golden and delicious. Perfect for any meal or party!
Ingredients
For the potato wedges:
- 4 medium potatoes (russet or Yukon Gold)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning (or a mix of oregano, basil, and thyme)
- Salt and black pepper (to taste)
- 1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
Optional toppings:
- Fresh parsley (chopped)
- Extra parmesan for garnish
Instructions
1. Preheat Your Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
2. Prepare the Potatoes
Wash the potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry. Slice each potato lengthwise into wedges.
3. Season the Potatoes
In a large bowl, toss the potato wedges with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Add the grated parmesan and mix well to coat evenly.
4. Arrange on a Baking Sheet
Place the wedges on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer with the cut sides down.
5. Roast to Perfection
Bake for 35–40 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through for even browning. The potatoes should be golden, crispy, and tender on the inside.
6. Add Final Touches
Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley and extra parmesan on top for garnish. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
Tips for Perfect Wedges
- For crispier wedges, soak the sliced potatoes in cold water for 20–30 minutes and pat them dry before seasoning.
- Use freshly grated parmesan for the best flavor.
- Adjust seasoning to your taste—add a pinch of chili flakes for a spicy kick!
Conclusion
These parmesan herb potato wedges are a healthier, flavorful alternative to traditional fries. Whether you’re serving them alongside a main dish or as a stand-alone snack, they’ll be a hit with everyone at the table.
