šŸ„” Crispy Garlic-Parmesan Roasted Potatoes

Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs (about 900g) baby potatoes or Yukon Gold potatoes, halved or quartered

  • 3 tbsp olive oil

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tsp salt

  • Ā½ tsp black pepper

  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning (or a mix of oregano, thyme, basil)

  • Ā½ tsp paprika (optional, for color and depth)

  • Ā½ cup grated Parmesan cheese (plus more for topping)

  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 425Ā°F (220Ā°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

  2. Prep the potatoes: Wash and dry the potatoes. Cut them into halves or quarters so they are roughly the same size for even cooking.

  3. Mix the coating:
    In a large bowl, combine:

    • Olive oil

    • Garlic

    • Salt

    • Pepper

    • Italian seasoning

    • Paprika

    • Parmesan cheese

    Toss the potatoes in the mixture until well coated.

  4. Arrange on baking sheet:
    Spread the potatoes cut-side down in a single layer on the baking sheet. Make sure they aren’t overcrowded so they crisp up nicely.

  5. Bake for 25ā€“30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy on the edges.

  6. Optional broil: For extra crispiness, broil for 2ā€“3 minutes at the end, keeping a close eye on them.

  7. Finish & serve: Sprinkle with more Parmesan and chopped parsley before serving.

šŸ”„ Tips:

  • For extra crispy edges, soak cut potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes, then pat dry before tossing in oil and seasonings.

  • You can also add chili flakes for a spicy kick.

  • Works great with sweet potatoes too!
