Ingredients

• 4 medium-sized Russet potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons (chopped) Fresh parsley
• 2 tablespoons Grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

Peel the potatoes and cut them into uniform 1-inch cubes. Rinse the cubes under cold water to remove excess starch, then pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well until the seasonings are evenly distributed.

Step 4

Add the potato cubes to the bowl and toss them until they are thoroughly coated with the oil and seasoning mixture.

Step 5

Spread the seasoned potato cubes evenly on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are in a single layer and not touching each other to promote even crisping.

Step 6

Bake the potatoes in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Then carefully flip them over using a spatula and continue baking for an additional 15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges.

Step 7

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and immediately sprinkle the hot potato squares with freshly chopped parsley and grated Parmesan cheese.

Step 8

Serve the baked potato squares hot as a side dish or enjoy them on their own with your favorite dipping sauces.
