Ingredients
  

4 medium-sized russet potatoes

1/4 cup olive oil

1 packet (1 oz) ranch seasoning mix

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon paprika

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1/4 teaspoon salt

Fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)

Sour cream or ranch dressing, for serving (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easier clean-up.

    Prepare Potatoes: Wash and scrub the russet potatoes thoroughly. Pat them dry with a clean towel. Leave the skin on for added texture and flavor. Cut each potato into wedges (quarter each potato lengthwise, then slice each wedge in half if they’re too thick).

      Seasoning Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ranch seasoning mix, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt. Mix well to combine all the spices.

        Coat the Wedges: Add the potato wedges to the bowl with the seasoning mix. Drizzle the olive oil over the wedges and toss everything together until the potatoes are evenly coated with the oil and seasoning mixture.

          Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the seasoned potato wedges out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure they are not overcrowded, as this will help them get crispy.

            Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through. Bake until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

              Garnish and Serve: Once baked, remove the potato wedges from the oven. If desired, garnish with freshly chopped parsley. Serve warm with your choice of sour cream or ranch dressing for dipping.
