Roasted Red Potato Wedges

Description:

These Roasted Red Potato Wedges are a delightful side dish that brings together the rich flavors of butter, Parmesan cheese, and garlic, perfectly roasted to a golden crisp. Ideal for pairing with steak or roasted chicken, this recipe is simple yet immensely satisfying.

Ingredients:

  • 4 large red potatoes, scrubbed and cut into wedges
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). This high temperature ensures that your potato wedges will crisp up beautifully.

  2. Prepare Potatoes: Take your red potatoes and cut them into wedges. Aim for uniform sizes to ensure even cooking.

  3. Boil Potatoes: In a large pot of salted water, bring the potato wedges to a boil. Cook them for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are just tender but still firm. Drain the potatoes well and let them cool slightly.

  4. Prepare Baking Dish: While the potatoes are boiling, prepare your 13×9-inch baking dish. Pour in the melted butter, ensuring it coats the bottom of the dish.

  5. Season Potatoes: In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Toss the potato wedges in this mixture, making sure each wedge is evenly coated.

  6. Arrange and Roast: Arrange the coated potato wedges in a single layer in the prepared baking dish. Place the dish in the preheated oven.

  7. Bake to Perfection: Bake the potato wedges for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Halfway through the baking time, give the potatoes a gentle toss to ensure even browning.

  8. Serve and Enjoy: Once done, remove the baking dish from the oven and let the wedges cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your crispy, cheesy, and garlic-infused potato wedges alongside your favorite main dishes!
