Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1.5 lbs baby potatoes
- 1 cup parmesan cheese
- 4 cloves garlic
Seasonings:
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
Finishing Ingredients:
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- ¼ cup fresh parsley
Instructions
- Thoroughly rinse baby potatoes under cold water and pat completely dry with a clean kitchen towel. Slice each potato precisely in half.
- Pour 3 tablespoons olive oil into a large mixing bowl. Add 4 minced garlic cloves, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon pepper. Gently toss potatoes until every surface is evenly coated.
- Arrange potato halves cut-side down on a baking sheet, ensuring they sit in a single layer without overlapping. Roast at 425F for exactly 25-30 minutes until edges turn golden brown and crispy.
- Remove potatoes from oven and immediately sprinkle 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese across the hot surface. Return to 425F oven for an additional 5-7 minutes until cheese melts and creates a crisp golden crust.
- Transfer roasted potatoes to a serving dish. Scatter ¼ cup freshly chopped parsley over the top for a bright, fresh finish. Serve immediately while potatoes remain hot and crunchy.
Notes
- Pat potatoes completely dry to ensure maximum crispiness and prevent steaming instead of roasting.
- Use a heavy baking sheet with rimmed edges to help potatoes brown evenly and prevent sticking.
- Cut potatoes to similar sizes so they cook uniformly and each piece gets the perfect crispy exterior.
- For a gluten-free version, confirm your Parmesan cheese is made without gluten-containing additives and use dairy-free alternatives if needed.
