Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 4 large russet potatoes
- 1/4 cup (60 milliliters) grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Seasonings:
- 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
Garnish:
- Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400F (200C) and prepare a parchment-lined baking sheet to ensure easy cleanup and prevent sticking.
- Thoroughly cleanse potatoes under cool running water, pat dry completely, and create uniform 1/4-inch rounds while maintaining the nutritious skin.
- Transfer potato slices into a spacious mixing bowl and drizzle with olive oil, then meticulously season with garlic powder, dried rosemary, paprika, salt, and pepper, ensuring each slice receives an even coating.
- Carefully distribute potato rounds across the prepared baking sheet, positioning them in a single, non-overlapping layer to promote optimal crispiness.
- Position the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, utilizing tongs to carefully flip the potatoes midway through cooking to achieve uniform golden-brown edges.
- During the final 5 minutes of roasting, delicately sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the potatoes, allowing it to melt and create a savory, crisp surface.
- Extract the baking sheet from the oven, allowing potatoes to rest momentarily, then garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve while warm for maximum flavor and texture.
Notes
- For maximum crispiness, slice potatoes uniformly using a sharp mandoline or steady knife to ensure even thickness.
- Patting potato slices dry before seasoning helps achieve a crunchier exterior by removing excess moisture.
- Avoid overcrowding the baking sheet to prevent steaming; leave space between potato slices for proper air circulation and golden browning.
- Customize seasonings by experimenting with different herbs like thyme, oregano, or smoked paprika to match various cuisine styles or personal preferences.
