Ingredients

• 2 pounds Red skin potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Dried rosemary
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese (optional)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Wash and scrub the red skin potatoes thoroughly. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

Step 3

Cut the potatoes into bite-sized pieces, roughly 1-inch cubes, for even cooking.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the potato pieces with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, dried rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the potatoes are evenly coated with the seasoning.

Step 5

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with a bit of olive oil to prevent sticking.

Step 6

Spread the seasoned potato pieces onto the baking sheet in a single layer, making sure they are not overcrowded. This ensures a crispy exterior.

Step 7

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.

Step 8

Optional: In the last 5 minutes of baking, sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the potatoes for a rich, savory flavor.

Step 9

Remove the potatoes from the oven when they are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender when pierced with a fork.

Step 10

Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, and serve immediately as a side dish for your favorite main course.
