Crispy Potato Wedges

4 med potatoes cut into large wedges
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 cloves garlic, minced

Place potatoes in large bowl, add cold water to cover. Let stand 15 minutes. Preheat oven to 425 F. Spray a nonstick sheet with vegetable cooking spray. Drain potatoes. Spread over paper towels and then cover with paper towels. Press to dry. Transfer potatoes to a clean large bowl. Sprinkle with oil, pepper and salt; toss gently to combine. Arrange seasoned potatoes in a single layer on prepared baking sheet. Bake potatoes for 20 minutes. Turn and sprinkle with garlic. Bake until golden.

ooh thanks - I LOVE that this isn't fried but looks delish! We'll have to give it a try this week...maybe even tonight!

I'm guessing the water should be as cold as can be? Is that the trick to the wedges coming out crisp? I'll have to try this. Sometimes my oven fries are limp.

I made these tonight and took them to a friend with a new baby. We all loved them. Thanks for the great recipe!
