Parmesan Roasted Potatoes
Crisp roasted potato cubes tossed with Parmesan, parsley, garlic powder, and olive oil make a simple savory side.

Ingredients
- 2 lbs russet or red potatoes
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1/3 cup grated Parmesan
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Directions
- Heat your oven to 400ºF. Wash the potatoes thoroughly so any dirt or grit is gone, then cut them into 1/2 to 3/4-inch cubes. Arrange the potato pieces across a large baking sheet in 1 even layer; if the pan is not non-stick, foil is a handy cleanup helper.
- In a small bowl, mix the grated Parmesan with the chopped parsley, garlic powder, and freshly cracked pepper, about 10-15 twists from the pepper mill.
- Pour the olive oil over the potatoes, then scatter the Parmesan mixture on top. Toss everything together right on the pan until the potatoes are nicely coated, then finish them with 1 last pinch of salt.
- Roast the potatoes for 40 minutes, or until they are browned and crisp, giving them 1 stir halfway through. The exact cooking time depends on how large your potato cubes are. Serve right away.
