Description
Crispy, buttery, and cheesy—Parmesan Potatoes are the ultimate Southern-meets-savory side dish. Whether it’s a casual weeknight or a fancy dinner party, this dish adds flavor, texture, and comfort to any plate.
Ingredients
Yukon Gold potatoes
Unsalted butter
Grated Parmesan cheese
Garlic (minced or powder)
Fresh rosemary or thyme (optional)
Salt and cracked black pepper
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Lightly grease a baking dish or sheet with butter.
3. Layer grated Parmesan directly onto the bottom—this forms the crispy crust.
4. Toss sliced potatoes with butter, garlic, herbs, salt, and pepper.
5. Press seasoned potatoes flat onto the cheese layer.
6. Bake for 45–50 minutes, flipping halfway for even browning.
7. Let cool slightly, then lift with a spatula to flip the crisped side up.
Notes
Use freshly grated Parmesan for best results.
Don’t overcrowd the pan—space ensures crispiness.
Rest the potatoes after baking to help the crust set.
Try adding chili flakes or smoked paprika for a spicy twist.
