Giada Roasted Parmigiano-Reggiano Potatoes

This comforting Giada roasted parmigiano-reggiano potatoes is one of my favorites when I want something quick, easy, and totally delicious. It takes just 5 ingredients and comes together in 30 minutes. I love how the flavors pop—especially with rosemary and the salty taste of Parmigiano-Reggiano.

To make it extra special, I like to add a bit more cheese on top. It’s simple, fun, and always makes me feel like I’m treating myself.

Recipe Ingredients

  • 1 pound Yukon Gold potatoes, unpeeled and quartered
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 3/4 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano

How To Make Giada roasted parmigiano-reggiano potatoes

  1. Preheat the Oven: Kick off by preheating the oven to 425°F – nice and hot for our roasted potatoes.
  2. Prep and Coat Potatoes: Toss the potatoes onto a rimmed baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and rosemary. Toss everything to coat the potatoes evenly.
  3. Initial Roasting: Roast the potatoes for 20 minutes – you’ll start to smell that magic happening in the kitchen.
  4. Add Parmigiano-Reggiano and Finish Roasting: Remove the potatoes from the oven, give them a nice toss. Sprinkle with Parmigiano-Reggiano and toss again to coat. Return the pan to the oven and roast for 10 minutes, tossing halfway through. Serve warm and enjoy!

Recipe Tips

  • Flavor Boosters: Add a pinch of nutmeg or a few grinds of black pepper to elevate the dish’s flavor profile and depth, as these spices complement the earthy taste of Parmigiano-Reggiano beautifully.
  • Cheesy Variations: Replace some or all of the Parmigiano-Reggiano with other sharp, aged cheeses like Pecorino Romano or Asiago for unique flavor combinations that still maintain the satisfying crunch.
  • Make It a Main Dish: Transform this side dish into a satisfying main course by topping it with roasted meats like prosciutto, pancetta, or chicken, adding an extra layer of savory flavor and texture.
  • Storage and Reheating: To maintain the potatoes’ crispy exterior, store them in an uncovered container in the fridge and reheat them in the oven instead of the stovetop, which helps prevent sogginess.
  • Garlic Infusion: Mince 1-2 cloves of garlic and sauté them in butter until fragrant before adding the potatoes for an aromatic twist that amplifies the recipe’s overall flavor and aroma.
