Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400ðF (200ðC) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Wash and dry the baking potatoes. Cut each potato lengthwise into eighths (wedges).
  3. Place the potato wedges in a large bowl. Drizzle with vegetable oil and toss gently to coat evenly.
  4. Open the packet of Fiesta Ranch dip mix and sprinkle it over the oiled potatoes. Toss again to ensure all wedges are well-seasoned.
  5. Arrange the potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded for even crisping.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through cooking, until golden brown and tender when pierced with a fork.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool for 2 minutes. Serve hot alongside any remaining dip mix mixed with sour cream or yogurt for dipping.

Note

For a vegan version, ensure the dip mix is vegan-friendly or make your own using vegan ranch seasoning, nutritional yeast, and spices.

To create the creamy chile dip, mix the remaining dry Fiesta Ranch mix with 1/2 cup of vegan sour cream or cashew cream and a splash of lime juice.

Potatoes can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven to restore crispiness.

For extra crispiness, parboil the potato wedges for 5 minutes before baking, then pat dry thoroughly before oiling.
