Ingredients
  

4 large russet potatoes

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

½ teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust for heat preference)

1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup sour cream (or Greek yogurt for a healthier option)

1 cup diced Hatch green chile (canned or roasted)

½ cup sliced green onions

½ cup diced tomatoes

¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro (for garnish)

Optional: 1 avocado, diced (for added creaminess)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Prepare the Potatoes: Wash and scrub the russet potatoes thoroughly. Cut each potato into wedges (around 8 wedges per potato) to ensure they cook evenly.

      Season the Wedges: In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Toss the potato wedges in the mixture until well coated.

        Bake the Wedges: Spread the seasoned potato wedges in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden-brown and crispy on the outside.

          Add the Toppings: Once the potatoes are baked, remove them from the oven and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the hot wedges, allowing it to melt slightly.

            Assemble the Loaded Wedges: Drizzle sour cream over the cheesy potato wedges, then generously add the diced Hatch green chiles, followed by the sliced green onions and diced tomatoes.

              Garnish and Serve: Top with fresh cilantro and diced avocado if using. Serve the loaded wedges immediately, and enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce or extra sour cream on the side!
