These crispy Air Fryer Potato Wedges are so easy and quick to make with spices that you probably already have in your pantry. This recipe is always a dependable hit for those weeknights when time and energy are scarce.
I love to serve these with Italian Beef Sandwiches, Po Boy Sandwiches, and Italian Beef Sandwiches. The combination makes an effortless and speedy weekend lunch or weeknight dinner. Or break out that air fryer and make a batch for Sunday breakfast along crispy bacon and eggs over easy.
How to make Air Fryer Potato Wedges
Start by washing and cutting your potatoes into wedges. Then combine them in a large bag with the oil, spices, and dried herbs. Then preheat the air fryer for about 3 minutes. Next arrange them in a single layer in the basket of an air fryer and cook for about 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. Shake the basket every 5 minutes or so to keep the potatoes from sticking. Then remove the potatoes from the air fryer and sprinkle with parsley and freshly grated Parmesan cheese.

How to cut potatoes into wedges
Simply start by cutting the potatoes in half lengthwise. Then cut each of those halves in half. Then if you are working with fairly large potatoes cut those sections in half again. Work with a good sturdy cutting board and a sharp knife.

I just got an airfryer. It’s actually still in the box. Am planning to try it out this weekend and think these potato wedges would be a great starter recipe. They look really good and sound pretty easy to make!
