How to Make Parmesan Garlic Roasted Potatoes

Step 1: Preheat and Prepare

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

Step 2: Season the Potatoes

In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Pour the mixture over the potatoes and toss until each potato piece is evenly coated.

Step 3: Roast

Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. To achieve extra crispiness, you can turn on the broiler for the last couple of minutes of cooking.

Step 4: Garnish and Serve

While the potatoes are roasting, combine the grated Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley in a bowl. Once the potatoes are cooked, remove them from the oven and immediately toss them with the Parmesan cheese and parsley mixture. The cheese will melt slightly and create a delicious coating.
