Crispy Parmesan Crusted Potatoes

Folks, get ready for your next favorite potato side dish! These crispy parmesan crusted potatoes are so easy and SO GOOD!

Whenever I’m looking for a quick side to complement a lighter dish, I turn to these delicious potatoes. They literally take just a few minutes to prep and just a few ingredients.

For prep, you’ll wash and halve about a pound of new potatoes – the small golden kind. Add those to a zip lock bag, coat with some oil, and then toss with parmesan cheese and bread crumbs.

Ta da! That’s really it. I add some salt and pepper, as well, for additional seasoning.

Then you spread them on a rimmed baking sheet, pop them in a hot oven and roast for 20-30 minutes. Seriously, that’s all it takes.

The results for the amount of effort are, hands down, AMAZING! I rarely get excited about potatoes, but this recipe changed my attitude.

We love them paired with a piece of roasted fish and a steamed vegetable or salad. They’d be great at a holiday table, too, as a nice alternative to traditional mashed potatoes. Or try them with barbecue, burgers, or your other grilled favorites!

Ingredients

  

1x2x3x

• 1 lb. small golden potatoes, halved or quartered
• 1 tbsp. olive oil
• ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese
• ⅓ cup Italian-style bread crumbs
• 1 ½ tsp. Italian seasoning
• ¼ tsp. kosher salt
• ¼ tsp. freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

 

• Preheat oven to 425℉ and lightly coat a baking sheet with cooking spray. Set aside.
• Add potatoes to a heavy duty zip lock bag. Drizzle olive oil over the potatoes, close the bag, and give it a shake to coat the potatoes.
• Add remaining ingredients to the bag, close, and shake till the potatoes are well coated with the mixture.
• Spread the coated potatoes onto the prepared baking sheet and roast for 20-30 minutes, or until you can pierce the potatoes easily with a fork.

Notes

• If your potatoes are pretty small, halving them is best. If they’re a little bigger, cutting them into quarters will help accelerate the cooking time.
• We like using the small golden potatoes, but baby red potatoes may be substituted.
