Parmesan Crusted Potatoes Recipe turns 5 simple ingredients into a crispy flavorful side that your whole family will love

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds of potatoes (Yukon Gold or red potatoes, washed and cut into 1-inch cubes)
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese (not pre-shredded)
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs (oregano, basil, thyme mix)
  • ½ teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
  • Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). A hot oven helps crisp the potatoes up perfectly.
  • Prepare the potatoes: After washing and cutting your potatoes, dry them well with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to remove moisture.
  • Toss potatoes with olive oil and seasonings: In a large bowl, mix the potato cubes with olive oil, garlic powder, dried Italian herbs, salt, and pepper until lightly coated.
  • Add Parmesan: Sprinkle the freshly grated Parmesan cheese on top of the potato mixture and gently toss again so the cheese clings to most surfaces.
  • Arrange potatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat in a single layer, avoiding overcrowding.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes at 425°F (220°C), flipping the potatoes halfway through (around 15 minutes) to ensure even crust and color.
  • Check for doneness: The potatoes should be golden brown, crusty, and tender inside when pierced with a fork.
  • Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired and serve immediately for best texture.
