Okay, so we’re really nearing the end of August and I almost can’t believe it. In many ways, this seems like it’s been the longest summer ever. And then I can’t believe we’re heading into September next week. Which I’m ready for and longing for in more ways than one. Especially when it comes to food.

These potatoes would go so great with the Pork Medallions in a Dijon Mustard Sauce, the Turkey & Mushrooms in a Creamy White Sauce or the Lemon Rosemary Slow Cooker Chicken. Or if you’re looking for something on the seafood side, why not take a look at the Zesty Pan Seared Salmon. Both great options. And we love them with the Chicken Cutlet Sandwiches with Roasted Italian Peppers.

I recently got my first ever slow cooker! I know!!! I’ve tried it out a few times and am in love. Can’t wait to start cooking and sharing comfort food in the coming months ahead.

And with that said, let’s look at these comforting potatoes!

The Ingredients


All basic, easy and fresh ingredients. I used baby potatoes, but some of them were quite large so I cut them in half. You can use red potatoes or even a larger roasting potato if that’s what you have. If you choose to use a large roasting potato make sure to cut them into about 2 inch pieces to ensure proper cooking.

Then we just have our herbs, spices, butter, parsley and parmesan. Full recipe can be found in the recipe card at the end of the post.

Ingredients to make a roasted potato dish

Let’s Get Cooking


First preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and have ready a large baking tray. We’re not using that stuff yet, but we will so keep reading.

In a large skillet placed over medium to high heat, add the butter until it melts. Add the potatoes and toss them in the butter to coat completely. Reduce heat to medium and allow the potatoes to cook for 18 – 20 minutes until they are getting soft and quite golden.


Add The seasonings


Add the garlic, paprika, thyme. rosemary, oregano, salt and pepper. Stir well and let it cook for just a few minutes to let the flavours enhance. About 2 – 3 minutes.


Time to Roast The Potatoes


Now it’s time to tip the potatoes onto the baking tray and get them finished off in the oven. The best part.


Time to Use That Cheese


Just a little bit about the cheese, use FRESH grated Parmesan cheese for this recipe. Don’t substitute the stuff that comes in a shaker can or the packet. You will not get the same results and will end in a very disappointing. So, remember real Parmesan!


Top with cheese and parsley


Sprinkle the cheese and parsley evenly over and then pop it in the oven to finish it off. The potatoes should be fully cooked between 10 – 15 minutes.


Crispy Parmesan Potatoes Fresh From the Oven


Fresh out of the oven and dee-licious. Everyone at our place loves potatoes, especially crispy potatoes. So, if you’re like us, make these and you will NOT be disappointed. The combination of the butter, herbs and parmesan just make them that much better than regular roasted potatoes.
