Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Slice them lengthwise into thin planks about 1/4-inch thick.
Place the potato planks into a large mixing bowl. Drizzle them with olive oil and toss to coat evenly.
In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle this seasoning mix over the potatoes and toss again to distribute evenly.
Arrange the potato planks in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Be sure not to overlap them to ensure even cooking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and evenly sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the potatoes.
Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and is bubbly.
Garnish the cheesy plank potatoes with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve immediately.
