Ingredients
  

2 lbs baby potatoes (Yukon Gold or red)

1/4 cup olive oil

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 teaspoons garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup and to prevent sticking.

    Prepare the Potatoes: Wash and dry the baby potatoes thoroughly. Cut them in half and place them in a large bowl.

      Seasoning Mixture: In a separate small bowl, mix the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Drizzle this mixture over the halved potatoes, tossing to coat all sides evenly.

        Add Parmesan: Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the potatoes and toss again, ensuring each potato is well-coated with cheese.

          Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the coated potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they have some space between them for crisping.

            Roasting: Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through to ensure they brown evenly and become crispy.

              Check for Doneness: The potatoes should be golden, crispy, and fork-tender. If you prefer them even crispier, leave them in for a few more minutes.

                Garnish and Serve: Once done, remove from the oven and garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy your crispy Parmesan roasted potatoes!
