Ingredients

2 medium to large Russet Potatoes or Yukon Gold potatoes
2 tablespoons vegetable oil or olive oil
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon ground paprika
1 teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley, thyme, or rosemary
¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

Cut your potatoes into wedges and dry the wedges well with paper towels. The number of wedges you cut depends on the size of the potato.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the potato wedges, oil, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat.
Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees. Arrange wedges in a single layer in the basket of the air fryer. Cook for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket every 5 minutes. Cook in batches if needed.
Sprinkle with parsley and freshly grated Parmesan cheese.

Notes

Dry the cut wedges well before combining them with the oil and other ingredients.
Air-fryer temperatures vary, so keep an eye on the potatoes and cook until they are golden brown and cooked through.
There is no need to turn the potatoes. Give the air fryer basket a shake several times during the cooking process to keep the wedges from sticking.
This recipe works well as a side or an appetizer. For an over-the-top delicious appetizer, serve it with various dipping sauces.
If you don't own an air fryer, you can bake these tasty potatoes in the oven at 400 degrees.
