These crispy herb-seasoned potato wedges are a delightful twist on classic oven fries, offering a flavorful and satisfying side dish.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Using parchment paper prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.
Wash the potatoes thoroughly and cut them into even wedges.
Cutting the wedges evenly ensures they cook at the same rate.
In a mixing bowl, whisk the egg until slightly frothy.
Whisking the egg helps it coat the potatoes evenly.
In another bowl, combine the herb blend, smoked paprika, and grated parmesan cheese.
Mixing the seasoning thoroughly ensures an even distribution of flavors.
Dip each potato wedge into the whisked egg, then coat it with the seasoning mixture.
Press the seasoning mixture onto the potatoes gently to help it adhere.
Arrange the coated wedges on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
Spacing the wedges out ensures they bake evenly and become crispy.
Drizzle the wedges with olive oil and bake for 25 minutes. Flip them over and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
Flipping the wedges halfway through baking ensures even crisping.
Serve the wedges hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
Serving the wedges immediately ensures they retain their crispiness.
