Crispy Crunchy Parmesan Potatoes are a delectable side dish featuring tender baby potatoes roasted to perfection with a golden, crispy Parmesan crust. This recipe combines the comforting softness of potatoes with the savory crunch of Parmesan cheese, making it a crowd-pleaser for any meal.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1.5 pounds baby Yukon Gold potatoes, halved
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic and herb seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven:
    1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Prepare the Baking Dish:
    1. Place the butter in a 9×13-inch baking dish or nonstick baking pan.
    2. Put the dish in the preheated oven until the butter melts, about 4 minutes.
  3. Prepare the Potatoes:
    1. While the butter melts, score the cut side of each potato half about ¼-inch deep in a crosshatch pattern. This allows the flavors to penetrate and creates a crispier texture.
  4. Create the Parmesan Mixture:
    1. Remove the baking dish from the oven and let it cool slightly for about 2 minutes.
    2. Stir the grated Parmesan cheese, garlic and herb seasoning, and kosher salt into the melted butter to form a paste.
  5. Arrange the Potatoes:
    1. Spread about 1 teaspoon of the Parmesan paste onto the cut side of each potato half.
    2. Place the potatoes cut-side down in the baking dish, pressing them gently to ensure good contact with the Parmesan mixture.
  6. Bake:
    1. Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake until the potatoes are tender and the Parmesan crust is golden brown, about 25 minutes.
  7. Serve:
    1. Remove the dish from the oven and let the potatoes stand for 5 minutes.
    2. Use a spatula to carefully release the potatoes from the pan.
    3. Serve warm, garnished with additional herbs if desired.

Notes

  • Variations: For added flavor, consider sprinkling chopped fresh herbs such as parsley or rosemary over the potatoes before baking.
  • Serving Suggestions: These potatoes pair well with roasted meats, grilled fish, or a fresh green salad.
