Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 2 lb Yukon Gold potatoes cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2.5 tsp minced garlic fresh if possible
  • 0.6 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese divided
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter, melted for finishing
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 0.5 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp fine sea salt or to taste
  • 0.5 tsp black pepper freshly ground
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
  • 2 tbsp extra Parmesan optional, for serving

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
  • Rinse and dry potatoes, then cut into 1-inch chunks.
  • Whisk olive oil, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
  • Toss potatoes with the oil mixture and about half the Parmesan until coated.
  • Spread potatoes on the sheet pan, cut sides down for better browning.
  • Roast 20 minutes. Flip potatoes and roast 12–15 minutes more until deeply golden and tender.
  • Sprinkle remaining Parmesan and drizzle melted butter over potatoes. Toss and roast 3 minutes to melt and crisp.
  • Finish with chopped parsley, taste, and adjust salt if needed. Serve hot.

Notes

Variation: Swap Italian seasoning for 1 tsp chopped fresh rosemary and a pinch of red pepper flakes. Air fryer option: Cook at 400°F for 18–22 minutes, shaking halfway. Storage: Refrigerate leftovers up to 4 days; re-crisp on a hot sheet pan or in a skillet.
