Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash and scrub the potatoes, then cut them in half lengthwise.
In a small bowl, combine the Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create the seasoning blend.
Pour the olive oil into a 9x13-inch baking dish and spread it evenly across the bottom.
Sprinkle the Parmesan seasoning mixture evenly over the olive oil in the baking dish.
Place the potato halves cut-side down into the dish, pressing gently so the surface of the potato comes into contact with the cheese mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and tender when pierced with a fork.
Remove the dish from the oven and let the potatoes cool slightly for 5 minutes.
Using a spatula, carefully remove the potatoes from the baking dish to serve.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve warm.
