Ingredients
  

4 medium-sized Russet potatoes

3 tablespoons olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon black pepper

1 teaspoon paprika

1 teaspoon dried oregano

½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper to ensure easy cleanup and prevent sticking.

    Prepare the Potatoes: Thoroughly wash and scrub the Russet potatoes to remove any dirt. Cut each potato into wedges, aiming for uniform sizes (about 8 wedges per potato) to ensure they cook evenly.

      Mix the Oil and Seasonings: In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, paprika, and dried oregano. Stir well until all ingredients are incorporated into a fragrant marinade.

        Coat the Potatoes: Add the freshly cut potato wedges to the bowl with the garlic oil mixture. Gently toss the wedges with your hands or a spatula until they are fully coated in the marinade.

          Add Parmesan: Sprinkle half of the grated Parmesan cheese over the seasoned potato wedges. Toss the wedges again to distribute the cheese evenly, ensuring that every wedge is generously coated.

            Arrange for Baking: Spread the potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure to leave space between each wedge to allow for air circulation and crisping while baking.

              Bake the Wedges: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the wedges for about 25-30 minutes. Flip the wedges halfway through the baking time to ensure both sides become golden brown and crispy.

                Finishing Touch: Once the wedges are cooked to perfection, remove them from the oven. While they are still hot, sprinkle the remaining grated Parmesan cheese over the top, allowing it to melt slightly onto the wedges.

                  Garnish and Serve: Transfer the crispy garlic Parmesan potato wedges to a serving platter. Before serving, generously sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for a touch of color and freshness. Serve warm and enjoy!
