Peppercorn Perfection Parmesan Potatoes
Fingerling potatoes roasted with seasoned with Peppercorn Perfection spice blend and Parmesan cheese, then baked to a crispy golden brown.
Equipment
- 1 glass 9x13 baking dish
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lbs. Yukon gold fingerling potatoes, cleaned and cut in half lengthwise. can use red or purple, or a combination of all three
- 2 tbsp. olive oil
- 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese (we like Pecorino Romano for this recipe too!)
- 2 tsp. Peppercorn Perfection Spice Blend Sold on our website!
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400℉. Baste the bottom of a 9x13 glass baking dish with the olive oil to coat the entire bottom of the dish. (The glass dish allows you to see if the potatoes are getting golden brown on teh bottom.)
- In a small bowl, mix grated cheese with Peppercorn Perfection spice blend. Evenly distribute this mixture on top of the oil in the bottom of the dish.
- Arrange the potatoes in the baking dish cut side down, right on top of the cheese layer. Spray the tops of the potatoes with olive oil spray and lightly season with salt and pepper. (If you don’t have the spray, very lightly drizzle 1 tbsp. of olive oil over the tops of the potatoes and season with S & P or more Peppercorn Perfection.
- Bake for 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are knife tender and the crust is deep golden-brown and crispy. Remove from oven and let sit for about 5 minutes.
- To serve, invert the potatoes so that the crispy side is up. Serve hot!
Notes
We love these potatoes so much and they are super easy. It’s best to use a glass baking dish, but don’t worry if you don’t have one. They will turn out just fine in a metal or ceramic dish, too.
We like to use Pecorino Romano in place of the Parmesan, even though the original recipe calls for Parmesan.
You can easily prepare these potatoes in the morning and refrigerate, covered, until you’re ready to bake them.
Try different herbs blended with the cheese. You can change up the flavor this way to go with whatever meal you are preparing. Rosemary would be excellent with these too!
