Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds baby potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 8 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
Cut the baby potatoes in half if they are larger, or leave them whole if they are bite-sized. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
Drizzle the potatoes with olive oil and season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Toss to coat evenly.
Spread the potatoes onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, tossing halfway through, until golden brown and tender when pierced with a fork.
While the potatoes are roasting, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the butter to the skillet and let it melt.
Add the sliced cremini mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are softened and browned.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until fragrant. Remove the skillet from heat.
Once the potatoes are done roasting, transfer them to the skillet with the sautéed mushrooms. Toss everything together gently to combine.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the potatoes and mushrooms. Cover the skillet with a lid and let it sit for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.
Transfer the Cheddar Mushroom Potatoes to a serving dish and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired. Serve warm.
