Spicy Potato Wedges

Well, D finally agreed with me that CL's potato recipes always don't turn out right, so we had these, but bought Simply Potatoes Red Potato Wedges instead of the Yukon. (You can get these next to the eggs at Kroger).

They were really good. It might be because we didn't alter the spices in the recipe, but used only 1 bag of potatoes. Also we didn't use the oil, because D cooked it in a pan with Pam.

Spicy Potato Wedges

This simple side dish is mostly hands-off, which lets you cook other dishes on the stovetop at the same time.

2 1/2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, each cut lengthwise into 8 wedges
1 1/2 tablespoons canola oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
Cooking spray

Preheat oven to 425°.

Combine potatoes and oil in a large bowl, tossing well to coat. Combine salt, garlic powder, and pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle salt mixture over potatoes, tossing well to coat. Arrange potatoes in a single layer on 2 baking sheets coated with cooking spray. Bake at 425° for 25 minutes. Turn potato wedges over, and rotate pans; bake an additional 20 minutes or until golden brown.

Yield: 6 servings (serving size: about 6 ounces potato wedges)
