Muffin Pan Roasted Potato Wedges Recipe
Ingredients:
- 4 large russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
- Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish (optional)
- Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Spray a 12-cup muffin pan with non-stick cooking spray.
- Prepare the Potatoes:
- Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Leave the skins on for extra crispiness.
- Cut each potato into wedges. Aim for about 8 wedges per potato, depending on size.
- Season the Potatoes:
- In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, dried rosemary, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
- Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss to coat them evenly with the seasoning mixture.
- Arrange in the Muffin Pan:
- Place 2-3 potato wedges in each muffin cup, standing them up vertically. This will help them get crispy on all sides.
- Roast the Potatoes:
- Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and roast for 35-40 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
- Add Parmesan (Optional):
- If using Parmesan cheese, sprinkle it over the potato wedges during the last 5 minutes of roasting. Allow the cheese to melt and become golden.
- Garnish and Serve:
- Remove the muffin pan from the oven and let the potato wedges cool for a few minutes.
- Use tongs or a fork to carefully remove the potato wedges from the muffin pan.
- Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired.
- Enjoy:
- Serve the muffin pan roasted potato wedges hot as a side dish or appetizer.
Tips:
- For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder to the seasoning mix.
- These potato wedges pair well with dipping sauces like ketchup, ranch, or aioli.
- Experiment with different herbs and spices to create your favorite flavor combinations.
