Garlic Parmesan Roasted Potatoes

These garlic Parmesan roasted potatoes are a cinch to make with ingredients you probably already have in your pantry. Lots of aromatic basil, garlic, oregano, thyme and good quality olive oil!

Roasting is my favourite way to prepare any vegetable. I just love the contrast between the tender centres and those dreamy crispy edges. Oh, and if you’ve never tried baking with Parmesan it has the BEST texture when it crisps up!

Here’s everything you’ll need to make these garlic Parmesan roasted potatoes

• 1½ lbs golden mini potatoes
• Extra-virgin olive oil
• Freshly grated Parmesan
• 2 garlic cloves, fine chopped
• Dried thyme
• Dried oregano
• Dried basil
• Kosher or fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
• Fresh parsley

Tips for making the best roasted potatoes

Spreading the potatoes out in a single layer and roasting them directly on the pan (no parchment) are both key to getting those crispy edges. Placing your potatoes too closely together will result in steaming and alter the texture. Just keep in mind that cook times may vary depending on the type and size of potatoes you use. Watch for that crisp factor and those tender centres, and you’ll know they’re done.

Make ahead

Garlic Parmesan Roasted Potatoes can be prepared in advance, covered and refrigerated overnight. Simply bring to room temperature then proceed with step 3.

Cheese them up!

Don’t have Parmesan? Asiago, Romano and Gruyère are all delicious substitutes. Want more cheese? Add a little more just prior to serving!

The crave-worthy garlic Parmesan flavour combination makes these garlic Parmesan roasted potatoes an ideal side that pairs well with just about any main. Just toss everything together and bake!
