Ingredients:
- 4 large russet potatoes, cut into wedges

- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano

- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- Prepare the Potatoes:
- Wash and dry the potatoes, leaving the skins on. Cut each potato into wedges, aiming for uniform thickness to ensure even cooking.
- Season the Wedges:
- In a large bowl, toss the potato wedges with olive oil, minced garlic, grated Parmesan cheese, oregano, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper. Make sure each wedge is evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
- Bake the Wedges:
- Arrange the seasoned potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, skin side down.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Flip the wedges halfway through baking for even browning.
- Garnish and Serve:
- Remove the potato wedges from the oven and transfer them to a serving platter.
- Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and a sprinkle of extra Parmesan cheese.
