Why These Parmesan Potatoes are Utterly Irresistible

The magic of this recipe lies in the contrast between the crunchy Parmesan crust and the creamy potato interior. Roasting at high heat caramelizes the edges, while the cheese and herbs lock in savory depth. With just a few pantry staples and the right technique, you’ll enjoy potatoes that are as tasty as they are beautiful—making them an instant hit at family dinners and holiday feasts alike.

Essential Prep for Perfect Parmesan Potatoes

Uniformly cut potatoes cook evenly and develop a perfect golden crust. Using the Mueller Pro-Series 10-in-1, 8 Blade Vegetable Chopper ensures consistent size and saves prep time, allowing every wedge to reach ultimate crispiness.

For the best flavor absorption, toss your potato pieces thoroughly in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, and spices before coating them in Parmesan. Press the cheese gently onto the potato surfaces to form a decadent, crunchy layer as they roast.

How to Roast for Maximum Crunch and Flavor

Line your baking tray with Reynolds Kitchens Brown Parchment Paper Roll for easy cleanup and to prevent sticking, ensuring the potatoes brown beautifully without burning.

Lay the potatoes in a single layer with space between them—this promotes even roasting and irresistible crispy edges. After flipping halfway through, sprinkle on more Parmesan to double the flavor impact.

For an extra-savory kick, lightly spray with olive oil using a TrendPlain 16oz/470ml Olive Oil Sprayer for Cooking before the final roasting phase.
