Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Wash and peel the potatoes, if desired. Cut them into evenly-sized wedges or cubes, around 1-inch thick, for even cooking.
Place the potatoes in a large mixing bowl. Add the olive oil, finely chopped rosemary leaves (remove from sprigs), minced garlic cloves, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Toss the potatoes thoroughly to coat them evenly with the oil and seasonings.
Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not piled up for proper roasting.
Bake the potatoes in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then remove the tray and use a spatula to flip the potatoes for even browning.
Return the potatoes to the oven and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until crispy and golden brown on the outside and tender on the inside.
If desired, sprinkle the roasted potatoes with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley before serving.
Serve hot as a side dish with your favorite Italian-inspired entrees.
