Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 medium sweet potatoes (washed and cut into wedges)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese (divided for roasting and garnish)
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
  2. Wash and scrub the sweet potatoes well (no need to peel them), then cut each into 8 even wedges.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and half of the Parmesan cheese. Add the sweet potato wedges and toss well to coat them thoroughly.
  4. Spread the sweet potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are skin-side down. Bake for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the edges are golden and crispy.
  5. While still hot, sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese over the roasted sweet potato wedges. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
  6. Serve and enjoy these flavorful garlic parmesan sweet potato wedges hot, straight out of the oven, with your favorite main dish or dip.

Notes

  • Cut sweet potato wedges evenly to ensure even baking and crisp edges.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan; space helps them crisp. Use two baking sheets if needed for crispy garlic parmesan sweet potatoes.
  • Use parchment paper for easy flipping and minimal sticking of the sweet potato wedges.
  • For extra flavor in your garlic parmesan sweet potatoes, add a pinch of smoked paprika or cayenne.
  • Store leftover garlic parmesan sweet potato wedges in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat in the oven to restore crispiness.
