Recipe below contains my modifications.

Ingredients:

3 lbs. red potatoes, cut in small chunks

1/4c. olive oil

6 large garlic cloves, finely chopped

salt and pepper, to taste

1 T. Italian seasoning

3/4 c. finely shredded fresh Parmiginao-Reggiano

1/4 c. unsalted butter

 

Directions:

 

1. Heat oven to 400°F with rack at the lowest setting.

 

2. Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment and spray with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside. 

3. Place potatoes in a microwave-safe bowl, cover, and microwave for 8 minutes.

4. In a large bowl, stir together the olive oil, garlic, salt & pepper, Italian seasoning, and Parmigiano-Reggiano. If the cheese absorbs all of the oil, add a bit more.

5. Add the microwaved potatoes to the oil mixture and stir/toss to coat. 

6. Pour the coated potatoes and spread out on the prepared baking sheet. 

7. Transfer to the oven and roast for 25 minutes. Turn/toss the potatoes on the sheet, then continue roasting for additional 15 minutes, or until browned/crisped at edges.

 

8. Meanwhile, heat the butter until just melted. After potatoes come out of oven, drizzle all over with the melted butter and stir to coat. Serve and enjoy!
