Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the extra virgin olive oil, Hungarian paprika, salt, and garlic granules, mixing thoroughly to ensure the seasonings are well blended.
- Scrub the baking potatoes under running water to remove any dirt, then pat them dry with a clean towel.
- Carefully cut the potatoes lengthwise into eight equal wedges for even cooking.
- Drop the cut potato wedges into the seasoning mixture, tossing them gently to ensure each wedge is well coated with the flavorful blend.
- Arrange the seasoned potato wedges in a 9″ x 13″ microwave-safe casserole dish, ensuring they are spread out in a single layer for optimal cooking.
- Pour any remaining seasoning mixture over the arranged potatoes, ensuring each wedge gets a final touch of flavor.
- Microwave the dish on HIGH (full power) for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender, turning the wedges over halfway through the cooking time to promote even cooking.
- Once cooked, remove the dish from the microwave and sprinkle the grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese generously over the hot potato wedges.
- Serve immediately while hot, and enjoy the delightful combination of flavors and textures in every bite.
