Ingredients

  • 3 cups chopped potatoes (see note below)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese
  • 2 teaspoons dried parsley
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 450°. Prepare a cookie sheet (12"x18") by spraying it with cooking spray or lining it with parchment paper for easy clean up.
  • Combine all the ingredients into a mixing bowl and stir together until all the potatoes are coated in the olive oil and seasonings.
  • Spread the potatoes onto the prepared pan. Making sure to not have them touch each other, you want them separated so they roast on all sides.
  • Cook for 22-28 minutes. Stir and flip the potatoes at the halfway point during the cook time.
    Potatoes will be crispy & browned and a fork will be easily able to pierce the potato.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

POTATOES : Red potatoes or yellow potatoes (also called Yukon Gold potatoes) are the best potato to use for this recipe. I prefer to use baby potatoes that come with a combination of red and yellow potatoes. 
You can peel the skin off of the potatoes or leave it on. Either way works fine. I peel the bad parts, and then leave the other skin on. Roasted potatoes are good with the skin on, as that is the part that will get crispy. 
Make sure you cut the potatoes into large bite sized pieces. About 1-inch pieces. 
PARMESAN CHEESE : Please use the cheap grated parmesan cheese that comes in the plastic container. You will find it on the shelves in the pasta & pizza sauce aisle. The freshly grated parmesan cheese, either from a wedge or the refrigerated shredded parmesan cheese, will burn very easily in the oven and make the potatoes taste bitter.
NUTRITION INFORMATION : The recipe makes 6 servings with each serving as 1/2 cup of roasted potatoes.
