Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Dried basil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 as needed Non-stick cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into 1-inch cubes and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, toss the potato cubes with olive oil, garlic powder, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Step 4
Lightly spray a large baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray. Spread the seasoned potatoes onto the baking sheet in a single layer.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Step 6
After 30 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle the parmesan and mozzarella cheeses evenly over the potatoes.
Step 7
Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 8
Once baked, remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool slightly for 2-3 minutes.
Step 9
Transfer the cheesy potatoes to a serving platter and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
Step 10
Serve warm as a side dish and enjoy!
