What is it about potatoes that are so innately satisfying? It must be the “mouth-feel” because potatoes could really be considered a “neutral”, tasteless food. It’s really all the extra yummy stuff you add to your potatoes that make them so satisfying, don’t you think? Anyway, potatoes are one of my favorite foods. And, these Roasted Potato Wedges are so easy, fast, satisfying and healthier for you than French Fries!
Here’s what you do:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Scrub 4 to 6 medium to large baking potatoes under cold running water. Chop each potato in half and each half into 4 wedges.
Place potato wedges on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Using clean hands, toss potatoes around on the baking sheet with the olive oil until each wedge is well-coated. Spread potatoes in a single layer on the baking pan. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast in preheated 350 degree oven for one hour, flipping potatoes over with a spatula at the 40 minute mark.
Remove from oven and transfer to serving platter. Serve with condiments, such as ketchup and/or ranch dressing.
