Parmesan Garlic Roasted Potatoes

Ingredients for Parmesan Garlic Roasted Potatoes

  • 2 lbs baby potatoes (or Yukon Gold, chopped into bite-sized pieces)
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme (optional)
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

How to Make Parmesan Garlic Roasted Potatoes

Step 1: Prep the Potatoes

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Wash and dry the baby potatoes (or Yukon Gold potatoes if using), then cut them into bite-sized pieces if they’re larger.

Step 2: Season the Potatoes

  1. In a large mixing bowl, toss the potatoes with the olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and dried herbs (if using). Make sure each piece is well-coated with the oil and seasonings.

Step 3: Add Parmesan Cheese

  1. Add the grated Parmesan cheese to the potatoes and toss again until evenly distributed. The Parmesan will create a delicious, crispy crust as it bakes.

Step 4: Roast the Potatoes

  1. Spread the potatoes in an even layer on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper or foil. Be sure to leave space between the potatoes to ensure even roasting.
  2. Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, tossing halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges.

Step 5: Garnish and Serve

  1. Remove the roasted potatoes from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley. Serve hot alongside your favorite main dish.
