Toss wedges to coat.Place wedges on a cooling rack on top of a baking sheet to help cook on both sides (if you don’t have a cooling rack, just cook on parchment paper lined baking sheet and flip half way through cooking).Bake wedges for 30-35 minutes until cooked through and browned.After cooked, let cool for 5 minutes then toss wedges in the bowl with fresh dill.
