Oven Baked Potato WedgesThese potato wedges are delicious and won't derail your healthy eating. These oven baked, crispy potato wedge fries are made with less than a tablespoon of oil per person...no deep frying here!Ingredients:
4 russet potatoes
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
¼ tsp sea salt or kosher salt
¼ tsp garlic powder
¼ tsp paprika
¼ tsp black pepper
2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley leaves
¼ cup parmesan cheeseInstructions:
(preheat oven to 450˚F)
Wash & cut potatoes into wedges by cutting lengthwise in half then slice each half into 3 slices.
Place potatoes in a bowl of water with about 2 cups of ice cubes.
Let them stand for 30 min then pat dry with paper towels.
Place ¼ tsp salt, ¼ tsp garlic powder, ¼ tsp paprika and ¼ tsp black pepper in to a large ziplock bag.
Add potatoes and shake them together.
Next add ¼ cup of olive oil to the bag and toss until potatoes are coated.Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place potatoes on the lined sheet and bake at 450˚F for 30-35 min until the potatoes are cooked through, browned and crispy.
While potatoes are baking, chop 2 Tbsp fresh parsley and grate ¼ cup parmesan cheese and place both into a large mixing bowl.
Toss potato wedges in the mixing bowl with parsley and cheese. I like dipping the wedges in ketchup, but they even taste good without any kind of dipping sauce. Serve these bad boys with the sauce of your choosing, and enjoy!
