Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 lb baby gold potatoes halved or quartered if large
- 2.5 tbsp olive oil
- 0.75 cup Parmesan cheese, finely grated for tossing
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, finely grated for finishing
- 1.25 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1 tsp kosher salt to taste
- 0.5 tsp black pepper freshly ground
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
- 0.25 tsp red pepper flakes optional, for heat
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment for easy cleanup.
- Cut potatoes into halves or quarters for even pieces. Pat dry to remove surface moisture.
- Toss potatoes with olive oil in a large bowl until lightly coated.
- Add 3/4 cup Parmesan, garlic powder, paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if using. Stir to coat well.
- Spread potatoes on the sheet pan, cut sides down and spaced out for browning.
- Roast for 20 minutes. Flip potatoes and continue roasting until crisp and golden, 12–15 minutes more.
- Sprinkle with remaining Parmesan and parsley. Toss briefly and serve hot.
Notes
Variation: Swap Italian seasoning for dried thyme and a pinch of lemon zest. For extra crunch, add 1 tbsp fine breadcrumbs with the Parmesan. Leftovers reheat well in a 400°F oven for 8–10 minutes, or air-fry until crisp.
