Yield: 8 servings

Ingredients

  1. 1 1/2 pounds baby Yukon gold potatoes, halved
  2. 1 1/2 pounds baby red-skinned potatoes, halved
  3. Kosher salt
  4. 4 cups cubed day-old sourdough bread (crusts removed)
  5. 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  6. 2 cloves garlic, grated
  7. 2 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest, plus wedges for serving
  8. Freshly ground pepper
  9. 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  10. 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese (about 1 ounce)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Put the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water by 1 inch; season with salt. Bring to a boil and cook over medium-high heat until just tender, about 7 minutes; drain.
  2. Meanwhile, pulse the bread in a food processor to make coarse crumbs; combine with the olive oil, garlic, lemon zest, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Add the potatoes and toss.
  3. Arrange the potatoes cut-side down on a baking sheet. Roast until golden and tender, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle with the parsley and parmesan; continue roasting until golden brown, about 5 more minutes. Transfer to a serving dish, season with salt and serve with lemon wedges.

Gilbert Patterson
Super side dish that amps up a regular roasted potato!
Kathy Rodriguez
Nothing bad, but not terribly impressive either.
Kenneth Henry
These potatoes were excellent!  I subbed cubed sour dough and used a mix of panko & Italian bread crumbs and only needed maybe 1-2 cups total.   Plus added a bit of crushed red pepper…Yum to the Yum!

Used the leftover crumb mixture and sprinkled it on our asparagus before roasting too!  So good!!

Delicious recipe.  Made 1/2 batch and it came out fine.
Michael Gillespie
Recipe calls for way too much bread crumb, but that’s easy to adjust during the tossing process. The potatoes cooked perfectly and had a nice depth of flavor with the citrus and the cheese. A decent holiday side dish.

These were excellent. The parmesan gave the potatoes a crisp and crunchy exterior and a soft interior. To save time and an extra pan to clean, I used the bagged steamed potatoes. Just pop in the microwave and then roast. I had too many breadcrumbs. I would definitely cut back on what the recipe calls for. These are a keeper.
