Crispy Parmesan Roasted Potatoes
Description
The recipe for Crispy Parmesan Roasted Potatoes revolves around halving small yellow potatoes and lining them in a single layer atop melted butter in a baking dish. The potatoes are seasoned with grated parmesan cheese, garlic powder, sweet paprika, and ground black pepper before roasting at 400°F for 30 minutes. This method encourages a crisp exterior from the butter and cheese, while the potatoes become tender inside. Letting them rest after baking allows the parmesan coating to cool and firm slightly, enhancing texture and ease of serving.
The flavor notes include the nutty sharpness of parmesan paired with aromatic garlic and paprika, balanced by the mild sweetness of yellow potatoes. The butter base ensures a rich, moist roasting environment that promotes browning without drying out the potatoes.
Once roasted, these potatoes are garnished with fresh chopped parsley, adding a bright herbal note. They are ideal as a side dish accompanying meats or vegetables and suitable for a comforting, rustic meal.
Ingredients
- 1 lb yellow potatoes rinsed, small
- ¼ cup butter melted (or ghee, unsalted
- ½ cup Parmesan Cheese grated
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp paprika sweet
- 1/2 tsp black pepper ground
- 1/4 cup parsley chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Wash the potatoes then cut them into halves.
- Pour the melted butter (or ghee) on bottom of a rimmed 9×13" baking pan, evenly coat the bottom.
- Sprinkle parmesan cheese on top along with the garlic powder, paprika and black pepper.
- Line your potatoes up in an even layer on top and bake on the middle rack for 30 minutes.
- Remove from oven and let sit for 10 minutes before removing from baking pan and serving. This allows the cheese to cool and slightly harden. Use a spatula to remove potatoes to serving dish in pieces. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve.
