Here’s a delicious and simple slow-cooker potato wedges recipe based on your idea:
Savory Slow-Cooker Potato Wedges 🥔
Ingredients:
- 4–5 medium potatoes, cut into wedges
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika (or regular paprika)
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon salt (or to taste)
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- Optional: 1 teaspoon dried herbs (thyme, rosemary, or oregano)
- Optional: Grated Parmesan or shredded cheese for topping
Instructions:
- Prep the potatoes: Wash and cut the potatoes into wedges. You can leave the skin on for extra texture.
- Mix the seasoning: In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, salt, pepper, and herbs.
- Ladle over potatoes: Place the potato wedges in the slow cooker and pour the seasoning mixture over them. Toss to coat evenly.
- Cook: Cover and cook on low for 3–4 hours or on high for 1.5–2 hours, until potatoes are tender.
- Optional finish: Sprinkle with Parmesan or shredded cheese during the last 15 minutes of cooking for extra flavor.
- Serve: Enjoy as a snack, side dish, or appetizer.
💡 Pro Tips:
- For crispier wedges, transfer to a baking sheet and broil for 5–7 minutes after slow cooking.
- Experiment with spices: curry powder, chili powder, or Cajun seasoning all work well.
I can also rewrite this into a scroll-stopping social media recipe that teases “ladle this one mixture over potatoes and you’ll never go back to ordinary fries” for maximum engagement.
