Certainly! Here’s a recipe for Baked Garlic Parmesan Potato Wedges:
Ingredients:
- 4 large russet potatoes, scrubbed and dried
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
- Prepare the Potatoes:
- Cut each potato lengthwise into wedges. Aim for about 8 wedges per potato, depending on its size.
- In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, dried thyme, dried rosemary, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
- Coat the Potatoes:
- Add the potato wedges to the bowl with the seasoned olive oil mixture. Toss until the wedges are evenly coated with the mixture.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet:
- Arrange the coated potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded. This ensures even baking and crispiness.
- Bake:
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the potato wedges are golden brown and crispy on the outside, and tender on the inside. Flip the wedges halfway through the baking time for even browning.
- Add Parmesan Cheese:
- Once the potato wedges are baked, remove them from the oven and sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top while they are still hot. The residual heat will help melt the cheese.
- Garnish and Serve:
- If desired, garnish the potato wedges with chopped fresh parsley for added flavor and color.
- Serve the Baked Garlic Parmesan Potato Wedges hot as a delicious side dish or snack. They pair well with your favorite dipping sauces, such as ketchup, aioli, or ranch dressing.
Enjoy your crispy, flavorful potato wedges with the savory goodness of garlic and Parmesan cheese!
