Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.

  2. Place potato wedges in a bowl, sprinkle thyme, cayenne, salt, and black pepper over the top. Drizzle melted duck fat over potatoes and toss to coat.

  3. Transfer potatoes, skin-side down, to the prepared baking sheet. Season wedges again with salt.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes. Increase oven temperature to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Turn potatoes onto their sides and bake for 10 minutes. Flip over and cook on the other side until golden brown, about 10 minutes more.

Recipe Note

You know a potato side dish is going to be good when 75% of the name refers to fat or meat. These super-crusty, oven-fried potato wedges, or ‘steak fries' as they call them where I'm from, are done with rendered duck fat, and while I'm a big fan of ones done with olive oil and/or butter, these really are better.
