Ingredients
2 pounds baby potatoes, halved
3 tablespoons olive oil
4 garlic cloves, minced
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Salt and black pepper to taste
Chopped parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
2️⃣ In a large bowl, toss the halved potatoes with olive oil, garlic, oregano, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
3️⃣ Spread the potatoes cut-side down on the baking sheet in a single layer. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes or until golden and crisp, flipping halfway through for even browning.
4️⃣ Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle with Parmesan cheese while the potatoes are still hot, tossing gently to coat.
5️⃣ Garnish with chopped parsley if desired and serve warm.
Notes
Use small, waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold or red potatoes for best texture and crispiness. Make sure not to overcrowd the pan, as this helps the potatoes roast rather than steam. For extra flavor, toss in a pinch of red pepper flakes or smoked paprika. These potatoes are best served fresh but can be reheated in an oven or air fryer to bring back their crisp.
