Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large russet potatoes
- 12 slices bacon
- 2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoon chopped chives
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- Thoroughly wash and dry each russet potato. Cut them into wedges, aiming for uniform sizes to ensure even cooking.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss the potato wedges in this delicious seasoning blend until they’re evenly coated.
- Take a slice of bacon and wrap it snugly around each potato wedge. If necessary, secure the ends with a toothpick to keep everything in place.
- Arrange the bacon-wrapped wedges on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes or until the bacon is crispy and the potatoes are cooked through.
- Once baked, remove the wedges from the oven and sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese generously over each one. Return them to the oven for an additional 5-7 minutes, just until the cheese melts beautifully.
- To finish, drizzle the wedges with sour cream and sprinkle with chopped chives. Serve hot and enjoy your loaded cheesy bacon-wrapped potato wedges!
Notes
For the best results, ensure that your potato wedges are thoroughly dry before wrapping them with bacon.
