A family favorite side dish for dinner!
This simple comfort food is not only quick and easy to make with just a few basic ingredients, it’s absolutely incredible. These yummy mini potatoes pair well with chicken, steak, bbq, and just about anything else you have planned for dinner. My favorite thing about this recipe is the fun way of baking them. They’re literally swimming in melted butter and parmesan cheese!
Once baked, these mini potatoes soak up the butter and get soft in the middle and crispy on the outside.
Ingredients
- 1 stick butter (1/2 cup)
- 1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1+ tbsp Montreal steak seasoning
- 1 pound petite red potatoes
- non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
- Add a stick of butter to a 9×13 baking dish or large sheet pan.
- Place the baking dish in a cool oven.
- Turn oven to 400 degrees F and let the butter melt as the oven preheats.
- Remove the pan once the butter is melted.
- Wash and cut the potatoes in half.
- In a small bowl, combine the parmesan cheese with 1 tbsp of Montreal steak seasoning, or you can use any seasoning you have on hand (salt, pepper, garlic powder, herbs, etc.).
- Evenly sprinkle the parmesan mixture over the melted butter.
- Place the potatoes cut side down onto the pan right on top of the parmesan and seasoning mixture.
- Spray the tops of the potatoes with non-stick spray (or brush them with oil) and sprinkle on a little more seasoning.
- Bake uncovered in the center rack for 30-40 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
Isn’t this fun!? This is my favorite way of roasting potatoes. They get crispy and cheesy on the outer edges with soft and tender insides. Once finished, some of the parmesan in your baking dish may look a little burnt, but no worries! The parmesan crust on the bottom of your potatoes should be cooked to perfection.
Crispy and cheesy on the outer edges with soft and buttery insides! You’ll never want to make potatoes any other way.
