Instructions

- Arrange wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded.

- Drizzle hot honey over the wedges and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve warm.
Notes
You can customize the seasonings to taste. For extra crispiness, soak the wedges in cold water for 30 minutes before roasting, then pat dry.
