Baked Crispy Parmesan Red Potatoes

Enjoy crispy, tender baked red potatoes coated in parmesan cheese, garlic, and seasonings. A delightful side dish that’s easy to make!

Add the Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, garlic powder and paprika to a bowl or plate with sides.

Combine well with your fingers.

Cut the potatoes in half. Place them in a large bowl and toss with enough oil to lightly cover each potato completely.

Add 2 Tbsp of oil to a cast iron skillet or any oven safe pan, spreading the oil to cover the bottom. Place the skillet into a preheated 400º oven for 5 minutes.

Press the cut side of each potato half firmly into the cheese mixture.

Remove the hot skillet from the oven and place potato halves, cut side down, into the hot cast iron skillet or oven safe pan. Sprinkle any of the cheese mixture left over on top.

Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until tender when you stab them with a fork. Time will depend on the size of potatoes.

Carefully remove the skillet from the oven.

Using a spatula place the potatoes, cut side up, on a serving plate then serve.
