Grilled Parmesan Potatoes are a simple yet flavorful side dish that’s perfect for outdoor barbecues or even a quick weeknight dinner. The combination of crispy, golden-brown potato slices, lightly charred from the grill, with a coating of savory Parmesan cheese makes these a crowd-pleaser. The garlic and herb seasoning adds an aromatic touch, while the grilling process brings out the natural sweetness of the potatoes. These potatoes pair perfectly with grilled meats, salads, or can be enjoyed on their own as a satisfying vegetarian option.
Ingredients:
- 4 large potatoes (Yukon Gold or Russet work best)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano or Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Prepare the potatoes: Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Slice them into 1/4-inch thick rounds to ensure even cooking.
- Season the potatoes: In a large bowl, toss the potato slices with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, salt, and pepper until they are evenly coated.
- Preheat the grill: Heat your grill to medium heat (around 375-400°F). If you’re using a grill pan, lightly oil it to prevent sticking.
- Grill the potatoes: Place the potato slices directly on the grill or in a grill pan. Cook for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and have distinct grill marks.
- Add Parmesan: Once both sides are grilled and crispy, sprinkle a generous amount of Parmesan cheese on each slice. Close the grill lid for 1-2 minutes to allow the cheese to melt.
- Serve: Remove the potatoes from the grill and transfer them to a serving dish. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for added color and flavor.
Enjoy these crispy, cheesy grilled Parmesan potatoes with your favorite summer dishes!
