Ingredients
  

  • 4 medium Idaho potatoes washed and cut into wedges
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic finely minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a rimmed baking sheet with a small amount of oil.
  2. In a 2-quart saucepan, place the potato wedges and fill with water until the potatoes are covered. Set over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Allow the potatoes to cook for 3-5 minutes, just until they are slightly tender but not fully cooked. You should be able to pierce them with a fork without much resistance, but they should remain firm enough to hold their shape. Drain the potatoes thoroughly.
  3. Transfer the par-boiled potato wedges into a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, then add minced garlic, salt, pepper, onion powder, Italian seasoning, and smoked paprika. Toss everything together to ensure each wedge is evenly coated with oil and spices.
  4. Arrange the seasoned potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 20-35 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and cooked through. The baking time may vary depending on the size and thickness of your wedges.
