Scrub the russet potatoes thoroughly with a vegetable brush.

Cut each potato in half, then cut each half into quarters to create wedges.

Rinse the potato wedges under running water and dry them thoroughly with a kitchen towel.

In a bowl, add a couple tablespoons of olive oil to the potato wedges.

Sprinkle paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt over the wedges.

Use hands to coat the wedges evenly with oil and seasonings.

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and arrange the wedges in a single layer without overcrowding.

Bake in the oven at 425°F for about 30 to 35 minutes, flipping after 20 minutes for even crisping.

Remove from the oven when crispy and soft inside.

Serve with smoky chipotle ketchup made by mixing ketchup with minced chipotle pepper in adobo sauce.
