Ingredients
4 large potatoes washed and dried.
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
Chopped fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Preparation
Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminium foil for easy cleanup.
Prepare the potatoes: Cut each potato into wedges by first slicing it in half lengthwise, then cutting each half into 2-3 wedges, depending on the size of the potato. Place the potato wedges in a large mixing bowl.
Season the potatoes: Drizzle the olive oil over the potato wedges and sprinkle with paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Toss the potato wedges until they are evenly coated with the seasonings.
Arrange on the baking sheet: Arrange the seasoned potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not touching each other. This will ensure that they cook evenly and become crispy.
Bake the potato wedges: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the potato wedges are golden brown and crispy on the outside, and tender on the inside. You can flip the wedges halfway through baking to ensure even browning.
Serve: Once baked, remove the potato wedges from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for added freshness and flavour, if desired. Serve the Potato Wedges hot as a delicious side dish or snack.
