Make restaurant style potato wedges at home with this easy potato wedges recipe. These oven roasted potatoes feature a crispy potato crust and a fluffy interior, seasoned heavily with garlic and Parmesan cheese.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large Russet potatoes, scrubbed
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. Cut each potato lengthwise into 8 equal wedges. You do not need to peel them.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the potato wedges with olive oil until they are evenly coated.
  4. In a small bowl, mix together the minced fresh garlic, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle this seasoning mix over the oiled wedges and toss well to coat every piece.
  5. Arrange the seasoned wedges on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Do not overcrowd the pan; use two sheets if necessary to promote crispiness.
  6. Bake for 20 minutes.
  7. Remove the pan from the oven. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the wedges. Gently toss the wedges on the pan to distribute the cheese.
  8. Return the wedges to the oven and bake for another 10 to 15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
  9. Remove from the oven, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve immediately as a savory potato side or appetizer potato recipe.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, soak the cut wedges in cold water for 30 minutes before drying them completely.
  • If you prefer an air fryer potato wedges garlic version, cook them at 380 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes, tossing halfway through, then add the Parmesan for the last 3 minutes of cooking.
  • Consider serving these with a simple dipping sauce like sour cream mixed with chives or a spicy aioli.
