Ingredients

Scale

Potatoes

  • 1.5 pounds baby potatoes, washed and cut in halves or quarters

Seasoning & Oil

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons ranch seasoning mix
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Cheese

  • 1 to 1½ cups shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella blend recommended)

Garnish

  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prep the Potatoes: Thoroughly wash the baby potatoes, then cut them evenly into halves or quarters depending on their size to ensure uniform cooking.
  2. Season the Potatoes: Place the cut potatoes in a large mixing bowl, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle ranch seasoning, salt, and pepper. Toss everything until potatoes are evenly coated.
  3. Roast Until Crispy: Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or foil. Roast at 425°F (220°C) for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through to ensure even browning.
  4. Add the Cheese: Once potatoes are browned and almost tender, sprinkle shredded cheese evenly over the top and return to the oven for another 5-7 minutes until cheese melts and bubbles.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Remove from oven, sprinkle freshly chopped parsley on top for color and flavor, then serve immediately to enjoy warm, melty cheesy ranch potatoes.

Notes

  • Cut potatoes into uniform sizes for even cooking.
  • Roast at high heat (425°F/220°C) to achieve crispy edges without drying.
  • Flip potatoes halfway through roasting to maximize crispiness on all sides.
  • Use finely shredded cheese for better melt and coverage.
  • Reserve some ranch seasoning to sprinkle on after baking for an extra flavor boost.
