  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large russet potatoes, scrubbed and cleaned
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Optional: Chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut each potato lengthwise into about 8 wedges and place them in a mixing bowl.
  2. Drizzle wedges with olive oil, add garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper, and toss to coat evenly.
  3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the wedges in a single layer.
  4. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through. Broil for the last 2-3 minutes for extra crispiness.

Notes

  • Add cayenne pepper or chili flakes for a spicy kick.
  • Experiment with different herbs like rosemary or cumin to customize flavors.
  • Use sweet potatoes for a healthier version.
  • Boil potatoes briefly for softer wedges before cutting and seasoning.
