Step 1

After washing and drying the potatoes, slice one potato in half lengthwise. Then slice each half into 4 equally sized wedges. Repeat with all potatoes.

Step 2

Preheat oven to 400°F and line several baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 3

Add potato wedges to a large mixing bowl, then add vegetable oil and garlic. Stir to combine.

Step 4

Add Parmesan, cornstarch, black pepper, salt, onion powder, paprika, chili powder, and minced cilantro. Stir to combine. ** I find the best way to really mix the seasonings into the potatoes is to use your hands. **

Step 5

Spread the potato wedges evenly onto prepared baking sheets. Make sure you leave space in between each wedge so the hot air can circulate. ** I had the best results when placing the potatoes skin side down, with the point facing upwards. **

Step 6

Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes.

Step 7

Keep the baking sheets in the oven, and change the temperature to 375°F. Continue baking another 40 minutes, or until as crispy and golden brown as you'd like.

Step 8

Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce!
