Number Of Ingredients 9

butter, for greasing the pan
2 pounds russet potatoes
¼ cup olive oil (preferably extra-virgin but it doesn't have to be), divided
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, crushed between fingertips
4 minced cloves garlic
salt and pepper
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
red pepper flakes, optional
fresh chopped parsley, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Generously butter an 8x10-inch casserole dish.
  • Peel and cut the potatoes in half lengthwise then lay each half flat and slice lengthwise into ½-inch wide half moons.
  • Place the potatoes in a big mixing bowl and toss with 2 tablespoons of oil.
  • Toss with the seasoning, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper and half the Parmesan (plus a few pinches of red pepper flakes if you like).
  • Pour into the casserole dish and scoop out any spices or garlic left in the bowl.
  • Sprinkle a tablespoon of Parmesan over the top and drizzle with a tablespoon of oil.
  • Bake 30 minutes then remove from the oven and toss well. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan on top and drizzle with the remaining oil.
  • Bake 25 more minutes. Toss well and season to taste with more salt and pepper if needed.
  • Place them in a serving dish and pour any remaining oil at the bottom of the pan over them and garnish with a little fresh parsley.
