Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly and cut them into wedges. Try to keep them uniform in size for even cooking. Pat them dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
In a large bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, paprika, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes. Toss the potato wedges in the mixture until they are evenly coated.
Sprinkle half of the parmesan cheese over the coated potatoes and mix again. Arrange them in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded.
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and bake the wedges for 30–35 minutes, flipping them halfway through. They should be golden brown and crispy when done.
Once baked, remove from the oven and sprinkle the remaining parmesan cheese on top. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve warm with your favorite dip.
