Crunchy Air Fryer Garlic Parmesan Potato Wedges are the perfect blend of savory flavors and irresistible crunch. They’re easy to make and adaptable to any meal or occasion, making them a must-try recipe for your kitchen.
Ingredients
- 4 large russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
1. Prep Potatoes: Start by washing the russet potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. Leave the skin on, as it adds extra crunch and nutrients. Cut each potato into wedges, aiming for uniformity in size to ensure even cooking.
2. Season Wedges: In a large mixing bowl, toss the potato wedges with olive oil. Then, sprinkle in the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat each wedge evenly with the seasonings.
3. Add Cheese: Next, sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the seasoned potato wedges. Toss again, ensuring that the cheese envelops each wedge, creating a cheesy, flavorful outer layer.
4. Preheat Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 400°F and let it preheat for about 5 minutes. Preheating ensures that the wedges start cooking properly as soon as they’re added.
5. Air Fry: Carefully place the potato wedges in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Avoid overcrowding to allow for optimal air circulation. Cook for 15-20 minutes, giving the basket a shake halfway through for even crispiness. You’ll know they’re done when they’re golden brown and crunchy!
6. Garnish & Serve: Once cooked, remove the potato wedges from the air fryer. For an added touch, sprinkle some chopped fresh parsley on top before serving. Enjoy these tasty morsels hot, straight from the fryer!
Notes
To achieve extra crispiness, soak the potato wedges in cold water for at least 30 minutes before seasoning and cooking. This helps remove excess starch. After soaking, thoroughly dry the wedges before tossing them with oil and seasonings.
