Ingredients

1 stick (1/2 cup) butter
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
3 tablespoons herb seasoning (divided)
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 lbs red potatoes, washed and halved
Nonstick cooking spray

Instructions

Preheat oven: Place butter in a 9×13 baking dish and set it in a cold oven. Turn oven to 400°F (200°C) and allow butter to melt as it preheats.
Prepare potatoes: While butter melts, wash and cut potatoes in half. Lightly score the cut sides for better flavor absorption.
Make seasoning mix: In a small bowl, combine Parmesan cheese, 2 tablespoons herb seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
Season pan: Carefully remove the hot baking dish with melted butter from the oven. Sprinkle the Parmesan seasoning mixture evenly over the butter.
Arrange potatoes: Place potatoes cut-side down into the dish so they sit in the seasoned butter.
Add finishing seasoning: Lightly spray potato tops with cooking spray and sprinkle remaining 1 tablespoon herb seasoning over them.
Bake: Roast uncovered for about 40 minutes, or until potatoes are golden brown and tender.
Serve: Let cool slightly and serve warm for best texture.

Notes

Yukon gold potatoes can be used for a creamier texture.
Add garlic powder or fresh garlic for extra depth of flavor.
Smoked paprika gives a smoky, richer taste.
Italian seasoning can replace herb seasoning if needed.
For extra crispiness, avoid overcrowding the pan and always place potatoes cut-side down.
