Print Recipe

These Baked Garlic Parmesan Potato Wedges are the perfect combination of crispy exterior and tender interior, bursting with flavor. A delicious and easy side dish or snack that everyone will love!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4–6 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • medium-sized Russet or Yukon Gold potatoes
  • freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • good quality extra virgin olive oil
  • salt
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • optional dried Italian herbs (like oregano or parsley)
  • optional smoked paprika

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line one or two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Scrub the potatoes under cold running water. Cut each potato in half lengthwise, then cut each half into 3-4 wedges, aiming for wedges that are roughly ½-inch thick.
  3. Optionally soak the potato wedges in cold water for 20-30 minutes, then drain and pat them dry.
  4. In a large bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper. Add any optional herbs or paprika and mix well.
  5. Add the dried potato wedges to the bowl and toss until every wedge is evenly coated.
  6. Arrange the coated potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
  7. Bake for 20 minutes, then carefully flip each wedge using a spatula. Continue baking for another 15-25 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  8. For extra crispiness, switch to the broiler setting during the last 2-3 minutes of cooking, watching carefully.
  9. Transfer the baked wedges to a serving platter and serve hot, optionally garnished with fresh parsley or extra Parmesan.
