The garlic, fresh herbs, and spices add depth to the overall flavors. Gosh, it’s just so delicious and addicting! As you can tell, I love potatoes 🙂

Kitchen Tips
- Cut your potatoes right before roasting. Don’t let peeled potatoes sit for too long or they will turn brown.
- If you don’t have fresh herbs, you can use dried ones. Adjust quantities – you’ll need less dried herbs.
- Customize your spice blend if you’d like! Some ideas: chili powder, red pepper flakes, oregano.

Roasted Garlic Potato Wedges
Equipment
Ingredients
- 6 medium Yukon gold potatoes
- 4 cloves minced garlic
- 2 teaspoons finely chopped rosemary and/or thyme
- 2 teaspoons Kosher salt
- Ground black pepper to taste
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese
- 3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Wash and scrub potatoes until clean. Cut each potato into 6 to 8 wedges, depending on the size of the potatoes.
- Place the potatoes in a large bowl. Add garlic, rosemary/thyme, salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and olive oil. Toss until evenly combined.
- Transfer the potatoes to a large sheet pan and lay every edge flat. Don’t overcrowd. Use two sheet pans if needed. Overcrowding the pan will cause the potatoes to steam rather than roast.
- Roast for about 35-40 minutes, flipping once midway through, until cooked through and golden brown. Remove from oven and toss with grated parmesan and chopped parsley. Enjoy!
