Crockpot Potato Wedges/Pics

[Roxy15]

To make a long story short, I am going to have KFC chicken for dinner tonight.  I have  a real bad cold and that is the only thing that sounds half way decent to me besides wedges.  I didn’t want KFC wedges so

I decided to make my own potato wedges in the crockpot and I used google to find a recipe.  The recipe called for Cajun Seasoning, but, all I have is Creole Seasoning so I used that!  I love spicy food so I added some cayenne pepper and some onion salt to the mixture. After a couple of hours I decided to take a bite to see if the temperature needed adjusting for tonight but they were tender so I turned the heat down.  After just taking a bite, I will never buy wedges again!  I will make these!  

 

Here is what I used!  I eyeballed it!

 

NOTE:  I ended up DOUBLING the oil and seasoning mixture!  It all depends on how many potatoes you are using and how much coating you like!

 

I washed a few Russet Potatoes and patted them dry with a paper towel; then I cut them into wedges.

 

Spray crockpot with Pam!

 

Put wedges in Crockpot.

 

Pour 1/8 cup water around wedges!

 

In a bowl, I added Creole Seasoning and I added 1/4 cup Olive Oil and dumped some Parmesan Cheese, cayenne pepper and onion salt in; mix well!  Add potato wedges and stir to cover!  

 

Pour mixture over wedges in crockpot; stir and cover with more Parmesan Cheese!

 

Put the lid on crockpot and cook on high for 4-1/2 hours WITHOUT lifting the lid up!

 

When they are done, you can:

 

 Put some shredded cheddar cheese on top and put them in the oven on low broil to crisp them up a bit; top with sour cream or your favorite toppings!

 

Fried. bacon and chopped green onions would be great on top too!

Did she mind?

 

Side note:  The KFC in the town I live in closed down this week.  This franchise would be the last place I would go to get fried chicken.

Everything costs these days so you “should” go to the take out food places that you like.  I don’t  have to go out to get it so I won’t be picky, especially with this cold.  I like Popeyes also.
