Ingredients
  

Potatoes and Seasoning
  • 2 large large russet potatoes, scrubbed and sliced into one quarter inch rounds
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Cheese and Garnish
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley or chives optional
  • to taste Ranch dressing or sour cream for serving optional

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the potato slices with the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Baking
  1. Arrange the potato rounds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each slice.
  2. Bake for 20 minutes, then flip the potatoes over and continue baking for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the slices are tender and lightly golden around the edges.
  3. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle each potato round with cheddar cheese and a little Parmesan. Return to the oven for 2 to 4 minutes, just until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serving
  1. Garnish with chopped parsley or chives, if desired, and serve immediately with ranch dressing or sour cream for dipping.

Notes

Make sure the potato slices are evenly cut for consistent cooking. Experiment with different types of cheese and toppings for added flavor. Prepare ahead and bake fresh when ready to serve.
