PREPARING THE BAKED GARLIC PARMESAN POTATO WEDGES:
1st Step
Set the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit (220 degrees Celsius). Thoroughly wash the potatoes and wipe them dry. Depending on the size of the potato, cut each potato into wedges by halving it longitudinally and then cutting each half into three or four segments. Try to maintain uniform wedge sizes for even cooking.
2nd Step
Combine the olive oil, garlic, Parmesan cheese, paprika, dried thyme, dried rosemary, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper in a large basin. To create a flavorful seasoning blend, stir well.
3rd Step
Add the potato wedges to the seasoning mixture in the basin. Gently toss the segments with the mixture until they are evenly coated.
4th Step
Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper or lubricate it lightly. Spread the potato segments with seasoning in a single layer on the baking tray, leaving space between them. This permits appropriate browning and crispness.
5th Step
Bake the potato segments on a baking sheet in a preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden brown and crusty on the exterior. To ensure uniform browning, rotate the segments midway through the baking time.
6th Step
Once the potato segments have reached perfection in the oven, remove them. For a touch of freshness and visual allure, sprinkle them with finely minced parsley. Serve the Baked Garlic Parmesan Potato Wedges with your favorite dipping sauce as a delectable side dish or appetizer.
TIPS AND VARIATIONS:
To give the spice combination a little more kick, add a dash of cayenne pepper or some crushed red pepper flakes to the mix.
You are welcome to try your hand at experimenting with several kinds of cheese, such as Asiago or cheddar, to see which one best suits your tastes in terms of flavor.
Reduce the quantity of minced garlic or replace it with garlic powder if you want a garlic taste that isn’t quite as overpowering in the dish.
