Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds red potatoes
- 1 medium yellow onion
- 0.5 cups (grated) Parmesan cheese
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons onion powder
- 1 teaspoons dried parsley
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
Wash the red potatoes thoroughly and cut them into 1-inch chunks, leaving the skin on for added texture and flavor.
Peel the yellow onion and slice it into thin strips.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the potato chunks and onion slices. Drizzle olive oil over the mixture and toss to coat evenly.
Sprinkle in the garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, salt, and ground black pepper. Toss again to distribute the seasonings.
Add the grated Parmesan cheese to the bowl and gently mix to ensure the potatoes and onions are well-coated with the cheese and seasonings.
Spread the potato and onion mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet, making sure not to overcrowd them for maximum crispiness.
Roast the mixture in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Once the potatoes are golden brown and fork-tender, remove them from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm as a delicious side dish.
