Ingredients
- 5 Large russet potatoes
- ¼ Cup extra virgin olive oil

- 1 Teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 Teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 Teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 Teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°. Rinse and dry russet potatoes. Add extra virgin olive oil to a pan sprayed baking pan. To cut the potatoes in wedges, cut the potato in half length-wise. Lay the flat, sliced part of the potato flat on the cutting board and cut in half length-wise again. Cut each half in half again. Each potato should yield 8 wedges.

Using clean hands, mix the seasonings, olive oil and potato wedges thoroughly until the potatoes are all coated completely. Store the remaining seasoning in an air tight container for future use.
- Bake for 30 minutes. Flip the potato wedges and bake for the remaining 15 minutes until crisp. If desired, season with a little bit of additional salt.
