Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 3 pounds red or Yukon potatoes chopped into 1-inch pieces, about 8-9 cups
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon granulated garlic or garlic powder
- 1½ teaspoons dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 cup freshly shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup freshly shredded pepper jack or Monterey jack cheese
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley for serving
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Place the potatoes in a large mixing bowl and drizzle with oil. Toss to coat and then sprinkle with garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper. Toss again to coat well.
- Spread the potatoes across a large baking sheet and roast for about 35 minutes, stirring halfway through.
- When the potatoes have lightly browned edges and are beginning to crisp, sprinkle them generously with shredded cheese and return to the oven for about 3 minutes, just until the cheese has melted. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve warm.
Notes
Fresh rosemary or parsley may be substituted for the dried parsley in this recipe. You'll need three times as much, about 1½ tablespoons of fresh herbs.
