Ingredients

Scale

Potatoes

  • 1.5 lbs baby potatoes or russet potatoes, washed and cut into bite-sized pieces

Seasoning Mixture

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley, thyme, or rosemary (or fresh equivalent)
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Optional Garnishes and Variations

  • Extra grated parmesan for sprinkling
  • Fresh parsley, chopped
  • Crumbled bacon, green onions, or sour cream (for loaded version)
  • Nutritional yeast and garlic-infused olive oil (for vegan version)

Instructions

  1. Prep the Potatoes: Wash and cut your potatoes into uniform bite-sized pieces for even cooking. If using baby potatoes, halving them is sufficient. Pat the pieces dry thoroughly to help achieve a crispy exterior.
  2. Mix the Seasoning: In a large bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, grated parmesan cheese, and your choice of dried or fresh herbs. Season the mixture with salt and pepper according to taste. Toss the potatoes in this mixture until all pieces are evenly coated with the flavorful blend.
  3. Choose Your Cooking Method: For oven-roasted potatoes, spread the coated potatoes in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake at 425°F (220°C) for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through to ensure even browning. For skillet potatoes, heat a small amount of oil over medium heat and cook the potatoes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and tender, about 15-20 minutes. Alternatively, use an air fryer for a lower-oil, crispy result.
  4. Add Final Touches: Once cooked, transfer potatoes to a serving dish and sprinkle extra grated parmesan and freshly chopped herbs like parsley on top. This enhances both the flavor and presentation.

Notes

  • Use fresh garlic instead of pre-minced or powder for a stronger, more vibrant flavor.
  • Avoid overcrowding the pan or baking sheet to ensure potatoes crisp evenly.
  • Add most of the parmesan before cooking, but reserve some for topping after cooking.
  • Cut potatoes into consistent sizes for even cooking times.
  • Adding fresh herbs like parsley or thyme at the end brightens the dish.
