Ingredients
For the Potatoes
Four large russet or Yukon gold potatoes
Three tablespoons olive oil
Three cloves garlic, minced
One teaspoon salt
One teaspoon black pepper
One teaspoon paprika
One teaspoon dried oregano
One teaspoon dried thyme
For the Topping
One-half cup grated parmesan cheese
Two tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
One tablespoon butter, melted
Instructions
Step One: Prepare the Potatoes
Preheat your oven to four hundred degrees Fahrenheit or two hundred degrees Celsius.
Wash the potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry. You can leave the skins on for extra texture or peel them if preferred.
Slice the potatoes into even rounds about one-fourth inch thick for consistent cooking.
Step Two: Season the Potatoes
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, paprika, oregano, and thyme. Stir well.
Add the sliced potatoes to the bowl and toss until each piece is evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Step Three: Arrange and Bake
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
Arrange the potatoes in a single layer, slightly overlapping them for an elegant presentation.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for twenty-five minutes.
Step Four: Add the Parmesan Topping
After twenty-five minutes of baking, remove the potatoes from the oven and sprinkle them generously with grated parmesan cheese.
Return them to the oven and bake for an additional ten to fifteen minutes, or until the edges are crispy and the cheese is golden brown.
Step Five: Garnish and Serve
Remove the roasted potatoes from the oven and brush them lightly with melted butter for extra richness.
Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of color and fresh flavor.
Serve hot as a side dish with grilled meats, roasted chicken, or a fresh salad.
Tips for Perfect Roasted Potatoes
Use Yukon gold or russet potatoes for the best texture and flavor.
Ensure the potato slices are even to ensure uniform cooking.
For extra crispiness, broil the potatoes for the last two minutes of baking.
If you love spice, add a pinch of red pepper flakes for heat.
