Description
These Crispy Oven-Baked Potato Wedges (Pub Style) are bursting with flavor and simplicity. Made with russet potatoes, infused with garlic and onion powder, they’re a delightful addition to any meal or snack.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds russet potatoes (6 small or 4 medium), scrubbed clean
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
- freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley, optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cut each potato in half lengthways, then again to make quarters. Cut each quarter diagonally to form wedges, aiming for 8 wedges per potato that are similar in thickness.
- Soak the potato wedges in hot water for 10 minutes.
- Drain and pat dry the potato wedges. Place them on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper on top.
- Toss the wedges to ensure they are evenly coated, then arrange them in columns with the cut side down on the baking sheet.
- Bake for 30 minutes, then flip the wedges and arrange them in a single layer before returning to the oven.
- Continue baking until the wedges are golden and crisp, about 25 to 30 additional minutes, checking for doneness.
- Optionally, sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving hot.
Notes
For crunchier wedges, ensure they are well spaced on the baking sheet.
Using fresh herbs can enhance the flavor of the wedges.
