Ingredients
Scale
For the Crust:
- For the potatoes:
- 2 lbs baby potatoes, halved
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- For the garlic butter sauce:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- For topping:
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
- Extra parsley for garnish
Instructions
1. Prepare the Crust:
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, toss halved potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Spread potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast for 30 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- While potatoes roast, prepare garlic butter sauce by combining melted butter, minced garlic, parsley, and thyme in a small bowl.
- After 30 minutes, remove potatoes from oven. Drizzle with garlic butter sauce and sprinkle Parmesan cheese evenly over the top.
- Return to oven for 10-15 more minutes until potatoes are golden and crispy, and cheese is melted.
- Garnish with additional fresh parsley before serving.
Notes
For extra crispiness, broil for the last 2-3 minutes. Substitute dried parsley if fresh isn’t available. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
