Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash and peel the potatoes, then slice them into rounds about ¼-inch thick.
Step 2: Season the Potatoes
- In a large bowl, toss the potato slices with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Make sure all the slices are evenly coated in the oil and seasonings.
Step 3: Arrange the Potatoes on a Baking Sheet
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with oil.
- Arrange the seasoned potato slices in a single layer, ensuring that they don’t overlap too much for even baking.
Step 4: Bake the Potatoes
- Bake the potatoes in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden and crispy. Flip the slices halfway through the cooking time for even crispiness.
Step 5: Add the Cheese
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle the shredded cheese and parmesan cheese evenly over the potato slices.
- Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 6: Garnish and Serve
- Once the cheese is melted and the potatoes are crispy and golden, remove from the oven.
- Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley for a pop of color and added flavor. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Tips & Variations:
🧀 Cheese Choices – For extra flavor, experiment with different cheeses like cheddar, Gruyère, mozzarella, or even a sharp blue cheese. You can also mix cheeses for a more complex flavor profile.
🌿 Herbs & Spices – You can add fresh rosemary, thyme, or a pinch of red pepper flakes for a bit of heat. Adjust the spices to suit your taste.
🥔 Other Potatoes – While russet potatoes are a great choice, you can also try Yukon Gold or red potatoes for a creamier texture.
🍅 Add Veggies – Try adding sliced tomatoes or onions on top of the potatoes before baking for added flavor.

🥗 Fresh Salad – Serve with a crisp green salad dressed in a light vinaigrette to balance out the richness of the potatoes.
🍷 Wine Pairing – A glass of white wine like Chardonnay or Sauvignon Blanc complements the creaminess of the cheese.
Storage & Reheating
- Refrigerator: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
