Ingredients

• 2 pounds red potatoes
• 1 medium yellow onion
• 0.5 cups (grated) Parmesan cheese
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoons garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoons onion powder
• 1 teaspoons dried parsley
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons (chopped) fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.

Step 2

Wash the red potatoes thoroughly and cut them into 1-inch chunks, leaving the skin on for added texture and flavor.

Step 3

Peel the yellow onion and slice it into thin strips.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the potato chunks and onion slices. Drizzle olive oil over the mixture and toss to coat evenly.

Step 5

Sprinkle in the garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, salt, and ground black pepper. Toss again to distribute the seasonings.

Step 6

Add the grated Parmesan cheese to the bowl and gently mix to ensure the potatoes and onions are well-coated with the cheese and seasonings.

Step 7

Spread the potato and onion mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet, making sure not to overcrowd them for maximum crispiness.

Step 8

Roast the mixture in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking.

Step 9

Once the potatoes are golden brown and fork-tender, remove them from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes.

Step 10

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm as a delicious side dish.
