Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs baby potatoes (or Yukon Gold potatoes)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- ¾ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano (optional)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Wash and scrub the potatoes to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a towel.
- Cut the potatoes into halves or quarters, depending on their size, so they are all roughly the same size for even cooking.
Step 2: Season the Potatoes
- In a large mixing bowl, toss the cut potatoes with olive oil, ensuring they are well-coated.
- Add the Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss again until the potatoes are evenly coated with the seasoning and cheese.
Step 3: Roast the Potatoes
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup (optional).
- Arrange the potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheet, cut side down. This helps achieve a crispy texture.
- Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through to ensure they brown evenly.
Step 4: Garnish and Serve
- Once the potatoes are golden and crispy, remove them from the oven.
- Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve hot.
Notes
- Cut Evenly – Make sure the potato pieces are all roughly the same size so they cook evenly.
- Don’t Overcrowd the Baking Sheet – If the potatoes are too crowded, they will steam rather than crisp up.
- Add More Cheese – For extra cheesy goodness, sprinkle more Parmesan on top during the last 5 minutes of baking.
