Ingredients
  

4 large russet potatoes, thoroughly scrubbed and cut into wedges

4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1/2 teaspoon salt (adjust according to your taste)

1/4 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

Fresh parsley, finely chopped (for garnish)

Optional: Grated Parmesan cheese for extra flavor

Instructions
 

Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). While the oven is heating, line a baking sheet with parchment paper to ensure easy removal of the potato wedges and minimize cleanup.

    In a large mixing bowl, pour in the extra virgin olive oil. Add the garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, dried oregano, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Whisk these ingredients together until they form a cohesive marinade.

      Take the potato wedges and add them to the bowl with the marinade. Use your hands or a spatula to toss the wedges thoroughly, ensuring that each piece is evenly coated. This thorough coating is key to achieving maximum crispiness once baked.

        Once coated, lay the potato wedges out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure there is space between each wedge to allow for even air circulation, which promotes crispiness.

          Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the potato wedges for 25-30 minutes. Be sure to flip the wedges halfway through the cooking time for even browning, until they are golden and crispy.

            For an added crunch, switch to the broil setting for an additional 2-3 minutes, keeping a close watch to ensure they don’t burn.

              When perfectly golden, remove the wedges from the oven and allow them to cool slightly. If you like, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the hot wedges for a rich, savory flavor.

                Garnish with a sprinkle of finely chopped fresh parsley, adding a burst of color and freshness to your dish.

                  Serve the Crispy Herb Roasted Potato Wedges warm, alongside your choice of dipping sauces such as ketchup, aioli, or ranch dressing for a delightful snacking experience.
