Description

Crispy and flavorful Ranch Potatoes, perfect for any meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ pounds baby Yukon gold potatoes, sliced in half
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter
  • 1.1 ounce packet ranch seasoning mix (approximately 2 tablespoons)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parmesan cheese, freshly and finely grated
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • Chopped parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 450 F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil or parchment paper and set aside. Spray with cooking spray if you use foil. Make sure your oven rack is in the middle.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, add the potatoes, olive oil, and melted butter. Toss to coat evenly.
  3. Sprinkle the ranch seasoning over the top followed by the parmesan cheese and fresh parsley, and toss to combine so the potatoes are coated evenly.
  4. Spread the potatoes out on the baking sheet, cut side down, in a single layer. Bake for about 22-30 minutes or until the potatoes are fork tender and crispy.
  5. Remove from the oven and garnish with parsley, if desired.

Notes

  • Storage: Let the potatoes cool completely before transferring them to an airtight container. Refrigerate for up to 3–4 days.
  • Reheat: For the best texture, reheat in the air fryer at 275°F for about 4 minutes. While the microwave will warm them through, they won’t stay as crispy.
  • Dry the potatoes well: Pat the potatoes dry to remove excess moisture before roasting.
  • Use foil instead of parchment: Foil conducts heat better, creating a crisp crust.
  • Avoid overcrowding the pan: Spread the potatoes in a single layer with space between them.
  • Cut potatoes into similar sizes for even cooking.
  • Don’t stir during baking to maintain contact with the hot foil.
  • Troubleshooting: Soft potatoes may result from excess moisture, overcrowding, or parchment paper.
