Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Peel them if desired. Dice the potatoes into 1-inch cubes for even cooking.
Place the diced potatoes in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Toss well to ensure all the potato pieces are evenly coated in the seasoning.
Spread the seasoned potatoes evenly onto the prepared baking sheet. Make sure they are in a single layer to ensure even roasting.
Bake the potatoes in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, flipping them halfway through cooking to ensure all sides become golden and crispy.
While the potatoes are baking, finely chop the fresh rosemary leaves and green onions. Set them aside.
Once the potatoes are tender and crispy, remove them from the oven and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly across the top. Return the baking sheet to the oven for an additional 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the potatoes from the oven and transfer them to a serving platter. Garnish with the chopped rosemary and green onions.
Serve the Potato Bounty hot with a dollop of sour cream on the side. Enjoy!
