Ingredients
2 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into 1-inch cubes
3 tbsp olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp dried parsley
1/2 tsp smoked paprika
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp cracked black pepper
Optional: 2 tbsp crispy halal beef bacon bits
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and dice the potatoes into uniform 1-inch cubes for even cooking.
In a large bowl, combine the potato cubes, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and smoked paprika, tossing until well coated.
Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and roast for 25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Remove the tray from the oven, sprinkle the Parmesan cheese and parsley over the potatoes, and toss gently to distribute.
Return to the oven for a final 10 minutes until the cheese is melted and golden brown. Serve immediately.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To maintain the signature crunch, reheat in an oven or air fryer rather than a microwave. For an extra smoky depth, sprinkle with finely chopped crispy halal beef bacon bits before serving.
