Garlic Parmesan Roasted Potatoes
Crispy, herby, flavourful — the perfect side for almost any dinner.
Bobbie's tips: use baby red or gold potatoes for the best texture, make sure the potatoes are dry before seasoning for extra crispiness, add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice for brightness, try pecorino romano, or add chives or dill. For a spicier kick, increase the red pepper flakes. Delicious with steak, chicken, lamb or fish.

Method
- 1
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- 2
Prep the potatoes: wash and dry the potatoes. Cut into halves or quarters so they are roughly the same size for even cooking.
- 3
Make the garlic herb mixture: in a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, melted butter, minced garlic, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, rosemary, thyme and red pepper flakes (if using).
- 4
Coat the potatoes: add the potatoes to the bowl and toss until evenly coated with the garlic herb mixture.
- 5
Arrange on the baking sheet: spread the potatoes in a single layer, cut side down for maximum crispiness.
- 6
Roast: bake for 35–40 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. (Test with a fork.)
- 7
Add Parmesan: remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese. Toss gently so the cheese melts and coats the potatoes.
- 8
Finish and serve: sprinkle with fresh parsley and lemon zest (if using). Serve hot and enjoy.
