  3. Toss the potato wedges in the mixture until they’re well-coated.
  4. Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet (line it with parchment for easy cleanup!).

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for about 3-4 days. Freeze for up to a month. Reheat in the oven to regain crispiness.
