Ingredients

4 medium yellow potatoes, scrubbed (not peeled)
3 tablespoons olive oil
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon onion powder
¼ teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon dried parsley
½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
4 tablespoons shredded Parmesan cheese, divided

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
Using a mandoline or a sharp knife, slice the potatoes into ¼-inch thick rounds.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the potato slices with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, parsley, salt, and 2 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese. Toss until evenly coated.
Arrange the slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overlapping for even cooking.
Bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping the slices halfway through, until they are golden and crisp.
Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese over the potatoes and bake for an additional 3 minutes, or until the cheese melts and turns lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

- Serve Immediately: These oven baked potato slices are best served hot and fresh out of the oven for the crispiest texture.
- Perfect Pairings: Enjoy them with dips like ranch dressing, garlic aioli, spicy ketchup, or sour cream and chives. They also make a great side for burgers, grilled chicken, or steak.
- Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheating: To keep them crispy, reheat in the oven or air fryer at 400°F for 5–8 minutes. Avoid microwaving, as it can make the potatoes soggy.
- Freezing Option: While best enjoyed fresh, you can freeze the baked slices in a single layer on a tray, then store them in a freezer-safe bag. Reheat in the oven until crisp.
