Ready Time

Yields
7 servings
Ingredients
- 2 pounds potatoes, cut into 1-inch wedges
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt, for sprinkling
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, parsley, salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt.
Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss them to coat them evenly with the marinade. Spread the potato wedges out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each wedge to allow for even roasting.
Roast the potato wedges in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until they’re crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, flipping them halfway through.
Remove the potato wedges from the oven and sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Serve hot and share with friends and family!
Notes
For the best results, make sure to cut the potatoes into uniform sizes so they roast evenly.
You can adjust the amount of garlic to your taste – if you’re a big garlic fan, add an extra clove! Don’t overcrowd the baking sheet, as this can prevent the wedges from getting crispy.
If you’re short on time, you can prepare the marinade up to a day in advance and store it in the fridge.
Keep an eye on the potato wedges during the last 5-10 minutes of roasting, as the cooking time may vary depending on your oven.
Perfect as a side dish or snack for parties, these roasted potato wedges are quite addictive, so be prepared to make them again and again!
