🥔🇮🇹 Italian Roasted Red Potatoes

 

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven

Preheat to 425°F (220°C).

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

2. Season the Potatoes

In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with:

Olive oil

Garlic

Italian seasoning

Oregano

Basil

Paprika

Salt

Pepper

Mix until evenly coated.

3. Roast

Spread the potatoes in a single layer, cut side down if possible.

Roast for 35–45 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden brown and fork-tender.

4. Finish

Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese during the last 5 minutes of baking.

Garnish with fresh parsley and, if desired, lemon zest or red pepper flakes.

🍽️ Serving Suggestions

These potatoes pair perfectly with:

Grilled steak

Roast chicken

Pork chops

Meatballs

Italian sausage

Baked fish

💡 Tips

Don't overcrowd the pan—leave space between the potatoes so they roast instead of steam.

For extra crispiness, preheat the baking sheet in the oven before adding the potatoes.

Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days and reheat in the oven or an air fryer to restore their crisp texture.

✨ Bottom Line

Italian Roasted Red Potatoes are a simple, flavorful side dish with crispy edges, tender centers, and savory herbs. Finished with Parmesan and fresh parsley, they're a delicious accompaniment to almost any meal. 🇮🇹🥔🧄
