🔥 Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking tray or a large baking dish with parchment paper.
- Prepare cheese coating:
In a small bowl, mix Parmesan, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. - Butter the tray:
Pour melted butter into the lined baking tray. Spread it out evenly. - Sprinkle cheese:
Evenly sprinkle the cheese mixture over the butter. - Place potatoes:
Place potatoes cut side down on the cheesy butter layer. Press them down slightly. - Bake:
Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the bottoms are golden and crispy. - Cool & flip:
Let rest for 5 minutes, then gently lift the potatoes using a spatula to keep the cheese crust intact. - Garnish & serve:
Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve warm. Great with sour cream or ranch dip!
📌 Tips:
- Want extra crispy bottoms? Use cast iron or a dark metal baking sheet.
- Add a touch of chili flakes for heat or Italian seasoning for an herby version.
- This makes the perfect side dish for grilled meats, baked chicken, or even on its own!
