Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 lb baby potatoes, cut in half
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • olive oil cooking spray
  • 1/3 cup finely grated parmesan or pecorino romano cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme or oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Pinch of salt
  • Fresh herbs for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F.
  • In a small bowl, combine the grated cheese, garlic powder, thyme, and paprika.
  • Pour olive oil into a 9x13-inch glass dish, tilting it to evenly coat the bottom.
  • Evenly sprinkle the cheese and spice mixture across the base of the dish. Make sure not to move or disturb the layer once it's in place.
  • Arrange the halved potatoes, cut side down, pressing them into the cheese mixture.
  • Spray the tops of the potatoes lightly with olive oil spray and sprinkle with a bit of salt.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, until the potatoes are tender and the parmesan crust is crispy and golden.
  • Let the potatoes cool in the dish for about 5 minutes before carefully removing them with a spatula, making sure to scoop up the cheesy crust along with them.
  • Enjoy!
