Golden, crunchy, and full of flavor — these Crispy Parmesan Roasted Potatoes are the ultimate side dish for any meal. Coated in olive oil, parmesan, and simple seasonings, they bake to golden perfection with that irresistible crispy edge. Simple ingredients, cozy comfort, simply made.

🛒 Ingredients

2 pounds baby potatoes (halved or quartered)
3 tablespoons olive oil
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon paprika
½ cup grated parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional for garnish)

👩‍🍳 Instructions

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease.
Prep the potatoes: Rinse and pat potatoes dry. Cut into halves or quarters so they roast evenly.
Season: In a large bowl, toss potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and parmesan cheese until evenly coated.
Roast: Spread the potatoes in a single layer, cut side down, on the baking sheet.
Bake 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
Serve: Garnish with parsley and an extra sprinkle of parmesan, if desired. Serve warm.

🍽️ Serving Ideas

Perfect alongside chicken, steak, or fish — or serve them as a cozy snack with a side of garlic aioli or ranch dip.

💡 Simply Made Tip

For extra crunch, soak cut potatoes in cold water for 15–20 minutes before roasting, then dry well — this removes excess starch and makes them even crispier!
