Ingredients
4 large russet potatoes

1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional)

3. Sprinkle in half of the Parmesan cheese and toss again to coat.
4. Place the wedges skin-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them out for even baking.

6. Remove from the oven and sprinkle the remaining Parmesan on top. Garnish with parsley and serve hot.
Notes
Use russet potatoes for the crispiest edges and soft interior.
Bake wedges skin-side down for maximum crunch.
For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of smoked paprika or chili flakes.
