Description
These crispy oven-roasted red potato wedges are tender on the inside and golden and delicious on the outside. They are so simple to prepare, take less than 10 minutes to prepare, and are a versatile and tasty side dish or can be served as an appetizer with dipping sauce!
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 pounds large red potatoes, scrubbed and cut lengthwise into wedges
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon each dry thyme, paprika, garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
- Freshly ground pepper to taste
- Parsley, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 convection or 450 still oven. If desired line baking sheet with parchment.
- Meanwhile, toss potatoes, oil, seasoning, salt and pepper in a large bowl until the potatoes are evenly coated in the oil and spices. Spread the potatoes out in one layer (not overlapping) on a large, rimmed baking sheet.
- Roast the potatoes until browned on the bottom, 13 minutes for convection, 17 to 20 for still oven. Turn over one by one with a thin spatula and continue roasting until browned on the second side and tender all the way through when tested with a fork, 7 to 9 minutes longer.
- Season with additional salt if desired and serve hot with parsley if desired.
Notes
Tip: Once you cut the potatoes, pat them dry with a paper towel to remove excess potato starch. Feel free to use parchment to line your baking sheet.
Leftovers and Reheating
Leftovers: Store in a resealable container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Reheating: Reheated potato wedges make a great snack! Simply reheat wedges in the oven at 400°F for 15 minutes. You can also reheat it in the microwave but the texture will not be crispy.
Air Fryer: Crispy Baked Potato Wedges reheat beautifully in the air fryer! Simply place potatoes in the basket and air fry until they are returned to their crispy glory! Times vary depending on your model, but ours were heated through and re-crisped in 5 to 8 minutes.
