Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium Yukon Gold potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 minced Garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary
- 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Leave the skin on for extra flavor and texture.
Cut the potatoes into bite-sized chunks, about 1-inch pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Add the potatoes to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the oil and herb mixture.
Grease a large baking sheet lightly with olive oil or line it with parchment paper.
Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded for even cooking.
Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast the potatoes for 30 minutes, flipping them halfway through to ensure crispiness on all sides.
While the potatoes are roasting, melt the butter in a small pan over low heat.
Once the 30 minutes are up, sprinkle the Parmesan cheese evenly over the potatoes.
Return the potatoes to the oven and roast for an additional 10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and crisp and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and drizzle the melted butter over the potatoes for extra richness.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve hot as a delicious side dish or enjoy as a main course with a fresh salad on the side.
