  4. Make sure the potatoes are evenly coated with the mixture.
  5. Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Don't overcrowd the pan; use two baking sheets if necessary.

  7. Remove from oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley, if desired.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

Don't skip preheating. Use Yukon Gold potatoes for best results. Don't overcrowd the pan to avoid steaming. Flip potatoes halfway through for even browning. Freshly grated Parmesan is recommended. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat on a baking sheet at 350°F (175°C) or in a skillet with olive oil. Spice it up with red pepper flakes. Experiment with different herbs. Add chopped onions, bell peppers, or broccoli florets before roasting. Add lemon zest for a bright flavor.
