Parmesan Herbed Potatoes
Parmesan Herbed Potatoes are a perfect fast and easy side dish to make and serve alongside steak, chicken, or even fish!
Servings: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 2 lbs of Golden Potatoes medium size
- 1 tbsp onion powder
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp fresh ground black pepper
- 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tbsp salt
- 1 tbsp finely chopped rosemary
- 1/4 cup finely grated parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Start by boiling the potatoes for 10 minutes until they are just about tender.
- Remove and place on a sheet pan while hot and press each potato with a potato masher just once to flatten it out.
- Sprinkle all the dry ingredients evenly on the potatoes and drizzle the olive oil on top.
- Bake for 10 minutes on a pre heated 400 degree oven.
- Remove and grate some fresh parmesan cheese on top.
- Garnish with some fresh chopped parsley (optional)
Notes
- If I don't time to boil the potatoes, I have been known to pop them into the microwave to cook through instead in half the time!
- By par-boiling the potatoes ahead of time, this recipe cooks easily and gives you truly tender and flavorful potatoes in just a few minutes.
- To smash the potatoes, use the back of a spoon or potato masher, smash each potato down so it bursts out of the skin and looks a bit like a pancake shape.
- Refrigerated grated Parmesan works really well as it tastes fresh and coats the potatoes more evenly than shredded Parmesan.
- For the best flavors sprinkle the tops with the spices and drizzle with olive oil before baking for around ten minutes or until crisp.
- If you find the Parmesan Herbed Potatoes don’t brown enough, you can try using a darker baking sheet next time. The dark coating on a baking sheet helps with browning.
