Preheat the oven to 450°F. Prepare two baking sheets by lining them with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, combine the potato wedges with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss until they are evenly coated.

Arrange the potato wedges on the prepared baking sheets, ensuring there is space between each piece.

Roast in the oven for 20 minutes. Turn each wedge over and continue baking for an additional 15-20 minutes until they are golden brown.

Meanwhile, heat a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Melt the butter, then add the garlic and sauté for about a minute until it becomes fragrant. Stir in the basil and promptly remove from heat.

Brush the basil sauce over the cooked fries and serve immediately.
