This is the BEST Potato Wedge Recipe that can be baked in the oven or air fried! They're tossed in an easy homemade seasoning and are extra crispy on the outside.

Ingredients

  • 4 Russet or Yukon Gold potatoes (about 3 lbs.)
  • 3 Tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt (to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 1.5 teaspoons paprika
  • 2 teaspoons dried parsley
  • 1.5 teaspoons garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne (optional)

Directions

  1. 1

    Note: If possible, soak sliced potato wedges in cold water for at least 20 minutes (or even overnight). It's a way to rid them of excess starch. Starch makes things crumbly and soft. Removing starch by soaking and rinsing is a great way to yield the crispiest possible result.

  2. 2

    Preheat oven to 415°.

  3. 3

    Prepare potato wedges as outlined above. Once sliced and seasoned, place in a preheated air fryer at 400° for 15 minutes, tossing them halfway through. Serve!
