- 2 pounds red potatoes, scrubbed and diced
- 6 teaspoons butter
- 3 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves, finely minced
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 6 teaspoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- First things first—preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures that your oven is hot and ready when you start roasting the potatoes.
- Scrub the red potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. Dice them into evenly sized pieces, which helps them cook uniformly.
- In a large bowl, combine the diced potatoes, melted butter, olive oil, minced garlic, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together until the potatoes are well-coated.
- Spread the seasoned potatoes onto a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast them in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until they’re golden brown and crispy.
- Once the potatoes are out of the oven, sprinkle them with fresh parsley, grated Parmesan cheese, and dried rosemary. Give them a gentle toss before serving.
