Cajun Potato Wedges are a crispy, spicy way to enjoy potatoes, cooked either in the air fryer or in the oven. They make a great snack or finger food appetizer.
Wash 1 pound of russet potatoes and pat dry. Cut into wedges.
Season with Cajun seasoning (as much or as little as you like).
For the air fryer:
Spray air fryer basket lightly with cooking oil.
Place wedges in air fryer basket. Spray potato wedges with cooking spray.
Cook at 400° F for 14 minutes, shaking the basket and reapplying oil spray halfway through.
For the oven:
Toss the wedges in a bowl with 1 teaspoon of cooking oil until coated.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicon baking mat. Pour the potato wedges onto the baking sheet. Space them out so that they aren't touching each other.
Bake on 400°F(200°C) for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and flip them over. Return to the oven and bake for another 20-25 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
Notes
You may need to adjust cooking times depending on the size of our potato wedges.
You can peel or leave the peel on the potato. It won’t affect it either way.
