Ingredients
• 2 pounds baby potatoes (or small Yukon gold potatoes)
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• Salt and pepper (to taste)
• 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a blend)
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
• Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Step 2: Prepare the Potatoes
• Wash the baby potatoes and cut them in half (or quarters if they are larger).
• In a large bowl, combine the halved potatoes with olive oil, minced garlic, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss until the potatoes are evenly coated.
Step 3: Roast the Potatoes
• Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, cut side down for maximum crispiness.
• Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the outside, flipping them halfway through for even cooking.
Step 4: Add Cheese
• Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle the shredded cheese and grated Parmesan over the hot potatoes.
• Return the potatoes to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 5: Serve
• Remove from the oven and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
• Serve warm as a side dish to your favorite main course.
