Seasoned Baked Potato Wedges are the perfect side dish and great with everything from Oven Fried Chicken to a juicy steak dinner or Crispy Chicken Cutlets! I used to buy store-bought until we realized how quick, easy and tasty they are to make at home! What’s your go-to side dish? In this house, we love potatoes. Mashed – Roasted – Baked – we love them all, and this recipe is one of our favorites! For crisp wedges that are fluffy on the inside. Choose a waxy potato with thin skin like New Potatoes, Yukon Gold, or red potatoes. In the UK, King Edward Potatoes are a good option. In Australia, Dutch Cream is a good all-around choice. Potato wedges are so much healthier than fries. They are baked instead of fried (making them drastically lower in fat), and at just 165 calories for a big satisfying helping, they have a fraction of the calorie count! Add the wedges to a large mixing bowl, and sprinkle with paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Drizzle with about two tablespoons of olive oil (or low-fat cooking spray), and then toss everything together to coat. Place on a baking tray and spray with extra cooking spray if needed. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes. For an extra crispy finish, turn the wedges halfway through baking. Serve fresh out of the oven, and enjoy!
