Crispy Baked Potato Wedges

A midday snack is never a bad idea, I think, especially if it can be made with simple every day ingredients. Crispy, baked-not-fried, lightly spiced and topped with some tangy ranch and thinly sliced green onions. Maybe a little sriracha for a little extra spice. Yum. These would also be great as a side dish. Imagine them served with some chicken, topped with gravy. The possibilities are endless. I sure hope you give these a try. Enjoy!

Crispy Baked Potato Wedges

Serves 3-4

Ingredients:

5 large Russet potatoes (no need to peel)

4 Tablespoons olive oil

1/2 Teaspoons salt (or more, as preferred)

1/2 Teaspoon pepper

1/2 Teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 Teaspoon onion powder

1/2 Teaspoon paprika

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

2. Prep Potatoes. Wash well and gently scrub any stubborn dirt off the potatoes, then cut each potato into approximately 6-8 wedges.

3. In a small bowl, mix all spices together. Toss the potato wedges in 4 tablespoons oil, and sprinkle over the spices and toss to coat evenly.

4. Lay out in one layer on a cookie sheet, and bake in preheated oven for approximately 35-40 minutes, or until crisped and golden brown.

5. Let cool slightly, then top as desired. Enjoy.
