Method
Preparation
- 1
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- 2
Prepare the Potatoes
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Cut each potato into wedges by slicing them in half lengthwise, then each half into 3-4 wedges.
- 3
Season the Wedges
In a large bowl, combine olive oil, paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a marinade. Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the marinade.
Baking
- 4
Arrange on Baking Sheet
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Spread the seasoned potato wedges in a single layer on the baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
- 5
Bake the Wedges
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, turning the wedges halfway through. They should be golden brown and crispy when done.
- 6
Finish with Parmesan
During the last 5 minutes of baking, sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the wedges, allowing it to melt and form a nice crust.
Serving

Prepare Dipping Sauce (Optional)

Serve
Once the potato wedges are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Serve hot with the optional dipping sauce on the side.
