I am obsessed with potatoes. I love the idea of oven fries or oven potatoes, but they never seem to work for us, we have to bake them for well over an hour and they’re never cooked evenly. It drove me nuts, oven potatoes shouldn’t be rocket science!
Through years of trial and error I finally figured out the best way to make oven potatoes (rather quickly too!) I make a couple times a week, Aliceana loves them too!
We’re sometimes oh-so sophisticated in our household and make these potatoes with dinosaur chicken nuggets for lunch.
The secret to making perfect oven fries? Ironically, it’s the microwave!
I love this easy and delicious recipe, and hope you do too! Enjoy!
Ingredients
Method
- Directions
- Prep and slice red potatoes into thin slices. Place them in a microwave safe bowl, coat in olive oil by stirring gently.
- Microwave the potatoes in olive oil for about 3-5 minutes, or until they start to soften.
- Spread potatoes evenly onto a cookie sheet, season the potatoes with garlic powder (or seasoning of choice.)
- Bake at 400* for 15 minutes.
- Flip potatoes, add parmesan cheese and bake for another 10 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.
How do you prepare potatoes in a hurry?
Those look Delicious! I have a bag of potatoes I have been trying to think about doing something with. I think I found my answer!
These are so yummy!! My hubby is picky though and makes me take off the potato skin, even though I think they taste better with it on 🙂
I love oven potatoes! Usually I toss them with olive oil and italian seasoning but I’ll have to try this!
These look so good! I will have to save this recipe!
I make these all the time in the cooler months, and they are so delicious. I like adding a bit of parsley to mine.
I will try this with my potato crazy family.
