Roasted Potatoes
Roasted Potato is one of my favorite side dish and this Italian roasted potatoes recipe is fast becoming my favorite. This is also a quick and easy recipe to roast and bake potatoes in the oven.
These potatoes are absolutely out-of-the-world delicious. Made with Parmesan cheese, garlic, olive oil and herb. Just look at the pictures, don’t you just want to pick up the potatoes and eat?
Baby Potatoes Vs Regular Potatoes
I love baby potatoes and they are perfect for this Italian roasted potatoes recipe. Baby potatoes are quick to cook and take only 20 minutes from prep to dinner. Just pick up the smallest baby potatoes you can find at your local store the next time you go shopping.
You can also use regular-sized potatoes but be sure to cut them up into smaller chunks about the size of baby potatoes so they get cooked evenly in the oven.
Ingredients
- Baby Potatoes
- Parsley
- Salt
- Paprika

- Olive Oil

How To Make Roasted Potatoes In The Oven
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400°F (207°C). Clean and rinse the baby potatoes, drain and cut into halves. Heat up an oven-safe skillet (cast-iron preferred) and add the olive oil. Add the potatoes and cook until the surface turns crispy.
Step 2: Turn over the cook the skin side until nicely browned. Push the potatoes to one side and saute the garlic, follow by the Italian seasoning, salt and paprika, stir to combine well.
Step 3: Turn off the heat and sprinkle the cheese and parsley on top of the potatoes. Transfer the skillet into the oven, roast for 15 minutes. Add the butter cubes on top of the potatoes, serve immediately.
I started off the potatoes on the stove top, cooking them with garlic and Italian seasonings. Top with generous amount of Parmesan cheese and transfer the skillet into the oven and roast for 15 minutes.
To make things even better, top the potatoes with small butter cubes. Let them melt and you will have the best roasted potatoes you have ever made at home!

- You may also roast the potatoes right away in the oven.
- Just combine the olive oil, garlic, potatoes, Italian seasoning, salt and paprika with the potatoes and follow the remaining steps. Roast for 20 minutes.

Fantastic recipe used fresh basil thyme and oregano from the garden everyone loves it.
Vegan delicious!!!
Could this be adapted for an air fryer?
You can try.
SO AMAZING! My husband made these as a side for my Valentines dinner and they were so delicious!!
Awesome!
I tried these for the first time, as written. Excellent recipe. I do however have a question. Would it be suitable to use the grated parmesan as opposed to the shredded? Grated (powdery stuff) is what I have on hand, but I don’t want to ruin the recipe by changing it up, IF you don’t think it would work. Thanks
Yes you can use it.
Omg! So delicious recipe!! my husband could not get enough and neither could I!! Just exquisite! Will be making this a regular!
Awesome thanks for trying my recipe. Please try more recipes on my site! https://rasamalaysia.com/recipe-index-gallery/
I want to make these this weekend. What is bottled Italian seasoning? Do you mean Good Seasons (the dry seasoning pack)?
It’s McCormick Perfect Pinch Italian Seasoning or Simply Organic Italian Seasoning.
Are these liquid or dry? Salad dressings?
Hi Barbara. The Italian seasoning refers to Italian herb mix, not salad dressing. The seasoning is dry. Hope that helps.
These are AMAAAZING! I made with fingerling potatoes, cut up small like the pictures – did not peel them. They cooked perfectly between time on the stove and 20 mins in the oven…. Which really happens for me. I don’t have a skillet so just made them on a frying pan and transferred to a baking sheet to put in the oven. I did start them on medium on the stove, then turned it up near high to get them to brown. They turned out so delicious!!!! Would definitely recommend this recipe!
