Description
Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, these Garlic Parmesan Roasted Potatoes are packed with bold garlic, Parmesan, and herb flavors. Perfect as a side dish or a vegetarian main, they’re easy to make and naturally gluten-free.
Ingredients
2 pounds baby potatoes, halved
3 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- In a large mixing bowl, toss the halved potatoes with olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, paprika, oregano, and Parmesan cheese until evenly coated.
- Spread the potatoes out on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, cut side down.
- Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy on the edges and fork-tender in the center.
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley, if using.
- Serve hot as a side dish or on their own.
Notes
Cut side down placement ensures maximum crispiness.
Use freshly grated Parmesan for the best flavor and texture.
Swap oregano for thyme or rosemary for a different herb profile.
To make spicier, add a pinch of cayenne or red pepper flakes.
Leftovers can be reheated in the oven or air fryer for best texture.
