Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 4 medium potatoes
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
Seasoning:
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
Garnish:
- 2 tbsp fresh chopped parsley
Instructions
- Thoroughly wash potatoes and pat them completely dry with paper towels to ensure crisp edges during baking.
- Slice potatoes into uniform 1/4-inch thick rounds, maintaining consistent thickness for even cooking.
- Combine olive oil, dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper in a large mixing bowl, creating a fragrant seasoning blend.
- Gently toss potato rounds in the seasoned oil mixture, ensuring each slice is evenly coated and well-seasoned.
- Arrange potato rounds in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet, making sure they do not overlap.
- Sprinkle grated parmesan cheese generously over each potato round, creating a rich, crispy topping.
- Preheat oven to 425°F and bake potato rounds for 20-25 minutes, rotating the baking sheet halfway through to promote uniform golden browning.
- Remove from oven when edges are crispy and golden, and parmesan is melted and slightly bubbling.
- Let potato rounds rest for 2-3 minutes to set their crispy texture.
- Garnish with freshly chopped parsley just before serving, adding a vibrant, herbaceous finish to the dish.
Notes
- Pat potatoes bone-dry to guarantee crispy, crunchy edges that will elevate the entire texture of the dish.
- Uniform slicing ensures each potato round cooks evenly, preventing undercooked or burnt sections.
- Experiment with alternative cheese options like pecorino or aged cheddar for unique flavor variations that suit different taste preferences.
- Transform this recipe into a gluten-free side dish by confirming the parmesan cheese is pure and free from additives.
