Ingredients

  • 2 medium russet potatoes, cut into wedges
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon brown sugar
  • grated parmesan cheese

Garnish (optional)

  • fresh chives or parsley

Instructions

  • Cut each potato (2) in half lengthwise then cut each half into thirds. You will have a total of 12 wedges.
  • In a bowl large enough to accommodate all the potatoes mix together paprika (1/2 teaspoon), chili powder (1/2 teaspoon), salt (1/2 teaspoon), black pepper (1/4 teaspoon), garlic powder (1/4 teaspoon), black pepper, and brown sugar (1/4 teaspoon).
  • Stir in olive oil (1 1/2 tablespoons) until evenly combined.
  • Add the potato wedges and toss to coat the potatoes with the seasoning. (You can also do this entire step in a large resealable plastic bag instead).
  • Preheat an air fryer to 400°F by running it for 3 minutes. Add the potato wedges to the spice and oil mixture and toss to coat the potatoes with the seasoning. (You can also do this entire step in a large resealable plastic bag).
  • Spray the air fryer basket with olive oil. Place wedges in the basket of the air fryer and cook for 15 minutes at 400°F, turning wedges over halfway through cooking time, until crispy and golden brown. Depending on the size of your Air Fryer you might have to fry them in batches.
  • Open the basket, sprinkle wedges with parmesan, (do not turn heat back on-there will be enough carry over heat to melt the parm) close the basket for 30-60 seconds to melt the cheese. Transfer to a serving plate, sprinkle with fresh chives or parlsey and serve plain or with your favorite dipping sauce.
