Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds Baby potatoes
• 1 medium Yellow onion
• 3 cloves Garlic
• 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
• 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with oil.

Step 2

Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly. If the potatoes are larger, cut them into halves or quarters to ensure even cooking.

Step 3

Peel and finely chop the onion. Peel and mince the garlic.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.

Step 5

In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for 4-5 minutes until softened and lightly golden. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 6

Transfer the cooked onion and garlic mixture to the breadcrumb mixture and stir to combine evenly.

Step 7

In the same skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Toss the baby potatoes in the oil until they are evenly coated.

Step 8

Roll the oiled potatoes in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing slightly to adhere the crumbs to the surface of the potatoes.

Step 9

Arrange the coated potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through cooking, until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and let the potatoes cool slightly. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley before serving.

Step 12

Serve warm as a delicious and crunchy side dish.
