Ingredients
  

For the Wedges
  • 4 medium potatoes (Yukon Gold or Russet) Yukon for creamier centers, Russet for extra crisp
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil Can substitute with avocado oil for a higher smoke point
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced Adjust to taste; roasting mellows flavor
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese Substitute with Asiago or Pecorino Romano for variety
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • to taste salt and pepper
  • chopped parsley for garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and place a baking sheet inside to heat while you prep.
  2. Wash the potatoes well and leave the skins on for texture and flavor.
  3. Cut each potato into 6 or 8 even wedges to ensure they roast evenly.
Coating and Roasting
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  2. Toss the wedges in the seasoned oil until they are lightly coated.
  3. Carefully arrange the wedges on the hot baking sheet, cut side down, ensuring they are spaced out for air circulation.
  4. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through, until they are golden and crisp at the edges.
  5. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan evenly over the wedges and return them to the oven for an additional 5 minutes to melt and lightly brown the cheese.
  6. Remove from the oven, transfer to a serving dish, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve hot.
