Method
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This high temperature helps achieve a crispy texture.
- Wash and dry the baby potatoes. If you use larger potatoes, cut them into halves or quarters so they cook evenly.
- In a large bowl, mix the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. Add the potatoes and toss until they are completely coated with the oil and seasoning.
- Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the seasoned potatoes. Toss again until the cheese is spread evenly.
- Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Do not overcrowd the pan for best crispiness.
- Bake the potatoes in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes. Flip the potatoes halfway through to brown them evenly.
- Check if the potatoes are done; they should be golden brown and crispy outside. A fork should slide into them easily.
- Remove the potatoes from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley if you are using it. Serve them immediately while hot.
Notes
High heat is necessary for the crispy exterior. Make sure your oven is fully preheated before you put the potatoes in. Cutting larger potatoes into uniform pieces ensures they all finish cooking at the same time.
