Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Thoroughly wash and dry the baby potatoes. Slice larger potatoes in half to ensure even cooking; leave smaller ones whole.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Add the potatoes to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding to ensure they roast evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove the tray, stir the potatoes, and sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top.
Return the potatoes to the oven and roast for an additional 20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside but tender on the inside.
Remove the potatoes from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley for a pop of color and added flavor.
Serve warm as a side dish to complement your favorite main course. Enjoy!
