Ingredients

4 large russet potatoes (about 2 lbs)
3 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
1/2 cup sour cream
2 green onions, sliced
Optional: pickled jalapeños, ranch dressing

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Scrub potatoes and cut each into 8 wedges. Place in a large bowl.
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Pour over potato wedges and toss to coat evenly.
Arrange wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, skin side down.
Bake for 25 minutes, then flip wedges and bake another 10-15 minutes until golden and crispy.
Remove from oven and sprinkle cheese over wedges. Return to oven for 2-3 minutes until melted.
Transfer to a platter. Top with crumbled bacon, sour cream, green onions, and any optional toppings. Serve immediately.

Tips

For extra crispiness, soak potato wedges in cold water for 30 minutes before drying and seasoning.
Customize toppings: try chili, guacamole, or salsa for a loaded nacho twist.
Leftover wedges can be reheated in an air fryer or oven to restore crispiness.
