Ingredients

To make these flavorful potato wedges, you will need:

4 large russet potatoes
12 slices of bacon
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon chopped parsley for garnish

Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes

Start by washing the potatoes thoroughly under cold water. Since the skins stay on, scrub them well to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a clean towel.

Cut each potato lengthwise into wedges. Depending on the size of the potatoes, you should get about 6 to 8 wedges from each one. Try to keep the wedges similar in thickness so they cook evenly.

Place the wedges into a large bowl.
