Roasted Garlic Parmesan Potatoes Recipe
Roasted Garlic Parmesan Potatoes highlight quartered red potatoes tossed with olive oil, minced garlic, and Parmesan cheese, baked until golden and tender. Finished with melted butter and fresh parsley, they offer a creamy, crispy side dish with rich cheesy and herbal notes suitable for many meals.
Ingredients
- 3 pounds red potato rinsed and quartered
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 8 garlic finely minced cloves
- 1 cup Parmesan Cheese grated
- 2 tablespoons butter unsalted
- 3 tablespoons parsley chopped, fresh
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°.
- Slice the red potatoes into quarters.
- Next, add them to a bowl with olive oil, garlic, ¾ cup parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. Mix until combined using a spoon or rubber spatula.
- Spread the potatoes out in a single layer, cut side down, and evenly sprinkle on an additional ¼ cup of parmesan cheese. Bake in the oven at 400° for 25 to 30 minutes or until golden brown and tender.
- Toss the cooked potatoes with melted butter and chopped fresh parsley.
Notes
- These potatoes are best consumed within an hour of preparation for optimal texture.
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to three days; freezing is not recommended as texture degrades.
- To reheat, bake in the oven at 350°F for 8 to 10 minutes to regain crispness.
- Fresh herbs can be added after cooking for additional flavor layers.
- Yukon or russet potatoes may be used instead of red potatoes.
- Pecorino Romano cheese can substitute Parmesan for variation.
- Try blending in 1 tablespoon of Italian seasoning with the other spices for enhanced taste.
