Roasted potatoes are such a great side dish. They go with almost anything. Beef, pork, chicken, and even fish are all great with these tasty roasted spuds. I’ve made them for years, and for a long time, I simply coated them with olive oil and a few simple spices. However, after a few years of making roasted potatoes, I thought it was time for a change. I do love the simplicity of roasted potatoes, so I didn’t want to get too fancy. To that end, I simply added some parmesan cheese and one of my favorite seasoning blends. That was it. I had an instant hit on my hands.

Garlic Parmesan Roasted Potatoes

My entire family loves these potatoes. They’re so delicious, and I love that they’re so easy. These potatoes are combined with garlic, onion, black pepper, and two of my secret ingredients – parmesan cheese and Slap Ya Mama Cajun seasoning. This combination makes for roasted potatoes that have all that rich potato flavor, a pop of garlic and onion, and a healthy helping of that signature Cajun flavor and heat that I love so much. These simple potatoes are perfect for weeknight dinners, potlucks, barbecues, or pretty much any occasion, which is another great reason to love them, too!

Variations

This potato recipe is absolutely delicious as-is, but there are some things you can do to mix it up if you like. With a few simple tweaks, you can make a variety of roasted potato options from this one recipe.

  • Use your favorite potatoes like red, Yukon gold, or baby creamers. If you don’t want to take the time to cut potatoes, you can even use baby or fingerling potatoes.
  • I love the combination of spices that I’ve used in this recipe, but you can use any spice combination that you love. Add and remove spices as you see fit. Thyme, oregano, basil, or fresh parsley would be delicious additions to the seasonings.

Garlic Parmesan Roasted Potatoes FAQ

If you have questions about these garlic parmesan roasted potatoes, then I have you covered. The following FAQ answers the most commonly asked questions about this recipe.

What are the best potatoes for roasting?

The three most commonly used potatoes for roasting are russet, Yukon gold, and red potatoes. Russet potatoes roast up crisp and pale in color. Yukon gold potatoes are balanced with a firm texture and fairly crispy exterior. Red potatoes have a beautiful dark color when roasted but are softer than russets or Yukon golds.

Do I need to parboil potatoes before roasting?

You don’t have to, but it helps. Boiling the potatoes for a bit before roasting helps get a great crisp crust on the outside and lets the fat penetrate the potato. I roast potatoes both ways, and I think they’re equally delicious.

Should I use shredded or grated parmesan cheese?

It really depends on your preference. They both work. Shredded parmesan cheese will result in potatoes that have visibly melted cheese on them, while grated parmesan cheese will result in potatoes that simply have that great parmesan flavor.

Why are my potatoes sticking to the pan?

If you don’t spray your foil with nonstick spray, your potatoes can stick to it.
