4 Servings
Ingredients
- 3 pounds red potatoes halved
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 5 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon dried basil
- ⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Kosher salt to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 2 teaspoons unsalted butter melted
- 2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley optional, for garnish
Instructions
Prepare the Oven and Baking Sheet
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray or a thin layer of oil to prevent sticking.
Combine Ingredients
- In a large mixing bowl, add the halved red potatoes. Pour in the olive oil, and add the minced garlic, thyme, oregano, basil, and Parmesan cheese. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Toss the potatoes thoroughly to ensure even coating of all seasonings and cheese.
Arrange for Roasting
- Place the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, cut side down. This allows for maximum crispness during baking.
Roast the Potatoes
- Bake the potatoes for 25 to 30 minutes, flipping them halfway through to ensure both sides become golden brown and crisp. Monitor the garlic and cheese to avoid burning during the final minutes.
Finish and Serve
- Once the potatoes are tender on the inside and golden on the outside, remove them from the oven. Drizzle with the melted butter and sprinkle with fresh parsley if desired. Serve immediately as a side dish.
