Parmesan Potatoes are roast potato rounds that have a crisp, buttery, Parmesan coating. This easy side dish takes just minutes to make!
I found a recipe for parmesan potatoes in an old church cookbook years ago, and it quickly became a family favorite. This recipe is very easy to make, and it only takes about 10 minutes of hands-on prep.
The potatoes bake up with a buttery, crisp Parmesan coating on the outside, and they're soft and fluffy on the inside. They're delicious, and they go well with all sorts of dishes!
Ingredients
- Butter: I use salted butter.
- All-purpose flour
- Parmesan cheese
- Salt: Since I use salted butter and parmesan cheese is on the saltier side, I use very little salt in the coating (about ¼ teaspoon). You can feel free to omit the salt or use more salt according to your tastes.
- Pepper: I usually use about ½ teaspoon of salt.
- Potatoes: There's no need to peel the potatoes before use.
- Italian seasoning - I just sprinkle it on. I usually use about 1-½ teaspoons.
How to make parmesan potatoes
Pour butter into a jelly roll (10x15-inch) pan. You can also place the unmelted butter in the pan and place it in the oven while the oven preheats to melt the butter. Just don't forget about it!
Combine flour, parmesan, salt, and pepper in a resealable bag. I like to use a gallon-sized bag.
Add 2-3 slices of potato to bag, and shake to coat with the flour mixture. Place coated potatoes in a single layer in the butter in the pan.
Sprinkle any remaining parmesan over potatoes. Bake for 30 minutes.
Flip potatoes over, and sprinkle with Italian seasoning. Continue baking an additional 15-20 minutes, or until tender.
Tips
- I've cut down the amount of butter to ¼ cup to see how it works. It works just fine, but the potatoes aren't quite as tasty.
- Just place a couple of potato rounds in the coating at a time. The potatoes don't get coated evenly when adding too many slices at a time.
- There's no need to peel the potatoes.
Serving suggestions
Parmesan potatoes go well with just about any main dish! Some favorite mains that pair well with potatoes are herb roasted chicken, lemon herb turkey, and honey garlic chicken.
