Ingredients

2 pounds baking potatoes, each cut into six wedges
2 tablespoons olive oil
0.5 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
salt to taste
0.25 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C) and gather all of your ingredients.
Place the potato wedges on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and season generously with thyme, pepper, and salt. Use a spatula to toss the wedges, ensuring they are evenly coated with the seasoning and oil.
Roast the potato wedges in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Flip the wedges and continue roasting until they are soft in the center and golden brown, approximately 15 minutes more.
Transfer the baked potato wedges to a serving platter and sprinkle immediately with grated cheese for a tasty finish.
