Introduction: Garlic Parmesan Potatoes

Are you looking for a side dish that everyone will love? This is it! Not only is it delicious for the people eating it, it is quick and easy, which is a great choice for any busy cook. It is gluten-free, vegetarian, vegan (substitute vegan butter and vegan cheese) and a go-to for even the pickiest eater.

For Garlic Parmesan Potatoes you will need:

  • 3 pounds of Potatoes
  • 2 tbsp of olive oil
  • 5 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp of dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp dried basil
  • 1/3 a cup of freshly grated Parmesan
  • Kosher salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste
  • 2 tbsp of unsalted butter
  • 2 tbsp of chopped parsley leaves

Step 1: Pre-heat the Oven

First, set your oven to 400 degrees and let it pre-heat while you prep. Oil, grease or spray a cooking pan. Cut your red potatoes into halves or quarters (whatever your preference). Next time I make this dish I will probably cut the potatoes slightly smaller than pictured.

Step 2: Begin to Add Ingredients

Add all the ingredients, I just mixed it on the baking sheet but I will use a bowl next time. Mix the oil, garlic, thyme, oregano, basil, Parmesan and salt and pepper. Mix well until the potatoes are evenly covered.

Step 3: Place in Oven

If you mixed in a bowl (recommended, learn from my mistakes), spread Potatoes evenly over an oiled pan. Place pan in pre-heated oven for 30 minutes or until golden brown.

Step 4: Garnish and Serve

I didn’t get a great picture of the finished product because everyone ate them up so fast. When you remove them from the oven toss in the butter until melted (about one minute) and garnish with parsley (if you want). Easy Peasy, Enjoy!
