Ingredients
  

4 large russet potatoes

1/4 cup olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 tablespoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon paprika

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Optional: extra Parmesan for sprinkling

Instructions
 

Preheat the oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature for baking.

    Prepare the potatoes: Thoroughly wash and scrub the russet potatoes under cold water to remove any dirt. Cut each potato in half lengthwise, then slice each half into 4 equal wedges, resulting in about 8 wedges per potato.

      Season the potatoes: In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Whisk the ingredients together until well blended. Add the potato wedges to the bowl and gently toss them until they’re evenly coated with the flavorful oil and seasoning mixture.

        Add Parmesan cheese: Generously sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the seasoned potato wedges. Toss the mixture again carefully, ensuring that the cheese sticks to the potatoes for an extra cheesy flavor.

          Arrange on a baking sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. Spread the potato wedges evenly across the sheet in a single layer, making sure they are not overcrowded to achieve optimal crispiness.

            Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 30-35 minutes. Be sure to flip the wedges halfway through the baking time to promote even browning. They are ready when they turn golden brown and crispy, and a fork can easily pierce through the thickest part of the potato.

              Garnish and serve: Once baked, remove the sheet from the oven and let the wedges cool for a couple of minutes. If desired, sprinkle extra Parmesan cheese on top and garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color before serving.

                Enjoy: Serve these tantalizingly warm potato wedges as a delightful side dish or snack, perfect for dipping into your favorite sauce!
