Lemon Parmesan Garlic Roasted Potatoes Recipe (Clean Eating, Gluten-Free)
These parmesan garlic roasted potatoes are an excellent side dish to serve with holiday meals, but so easy to make you can whip them up any weeknight. They’re an excellent pairing with almost any main dish or entree, and they’re packed with delicious flavors almost everyone enjoys. They’re a new favorite at my house. Everyone loved them and went for seconds, even my picky eater.
The lemon and parsley are very fresh and bright flavors that balance well with the savoriness of the Parmesan and garlic. The mellow roasted potatoes bring all the flavors together perfectly. When they’re done I like to sprinkle them with some extra parsley leaves before I serve. They bring fresh flavor back to the potatoes after they roast and set off their beautiful golden brown color.
Red potatoes are one of my favorites for roasting. They stay soft and fluffy on the inside, and the cut side crisps up nicely. Using both olive oil and butter to coat them helps them get that deep golden brown.
The lemon flavor is strong when they’re fresh out of the oven, but gets less intense as the parmesan garlic roasted potatoes sit. If you make them ahead of time or have leftovers you’d like to reheat, squeeze a little fresh lemon juice over them and toss before serving.
I love easy side dishes like these parmesan garlic roasted potatoes because honestly, putting on a big holiday meal can be stressful. These are very simple to make, and when you’re done you have a gorgeous, delicious side dish that looks and tastes impressive.
These garlic roasted potatoes have a slight hint of lemon, herbs and Parmesan cheese. Plus, they are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Perfection!
