Ingredients
  

4 large russet potatoes

1/4 cup olive oil

4 cloves garlic, finely minced

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure it's hot enough for crisping the wedges.

    Prepare the Potatoes: Thoroughly scrub the russet potatoes under cold water to remove any dirt. Once cleaned, cut each potato in half lengthwise, then slice each half into wedges, aiming for about 8 wedges per potato for even cooking.

      Season the Wedges: In a large mixing bowl, combine the potato wedges with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and dried oregano. Toss everything together until each wedge is beautifully coated in the seasoning mixture.

        Incorporate the Cheese: Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the seasoned potato wedges. Gently toss to combine, ensuring that the cheese sticks to the wedges for that delicious cheesy crust.

          Arrange on Baking Sheet: Prepare a large baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper to prevent sticking and for easy cleanup. Spread the potato wedges out in a single layer, leaving space between each wedge to allow for proper air circulation while baking.

            Bake to Perfection: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes. Flip the wedges halfway through the baking time to achieve an even golden brown and crispy texture.

              Garnish and Serve: Once baked to a perfect crisp, remove the wedges from the oven and let them cool slightly. Sprinkle with finely chopped fresh parsley to add a vibrant touch and enhance the flavor.

                Enjoy: Serve your crunchy garlic Parmesan potato wedges warm, accompanied by your favorite dipping sauces like ranch dressing or marinara for a delightful treat!
