3 large russet potatoes washed and cut into wedges similar to that of a pickle wedge.

1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp paricka
1 tsp italian seasoning
2-3 tbsp olive oil or canola oil

Pre-heat oven to 400
Place potatoes in a zip loc bag and add seasoning and olive oil. Shake bag to coat potatoes. Layer ptoatoes evenly on a cookie sheet. Bake on 400 for 40-45 minutes turning potatoes once after 20 minutes. Bake until brown and crisp and potatoes are soft in the middle. You can make them spicy of you like by adding Cayenne pepper. Dill is also good on these.

Lubby, this recipe is good, but I'm going to print yours and use it tonight. I'm always up for trying new recipes.

I love potato sticks. If you ever want them incredibly crispy and tasty, use coconut oil as your fat. I have also used butter or olive oil.

I like to season with cumin & hot sauce or chili powder.

I use similar seasonings on my sweet potato (yam) fries and they are tasty but do not crisp up at all. Do you do anything special to crisp these up?

No, I just followed the recipe directions. However, have you tried baking them on a foil-lined baking sheet? Sometimes that increases the heat and they crisp up.

Yep that's how I make them. Usually they come out soft and some get REALLY burnt (probably due to my lack of skills with hand cutting)

do what I did bake them on a cookie cooling rack and tuen up the heat to maybe 425 and cook them for 40-45 minutes. They don't get as crispy as regular potatoes but they do get a little crispy
