Ingredients
Potatoes
- 1 lb red potatoes, quartered
Seasonings & Flavorings
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Morton’s Nature’s seasoning
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ½ tablespoon parsley
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, shredded
Instructions
- Prepare Potatoes: Rinse the red potatoes thoroughly and cut them into quarters to ensure even cooking.
- Toss Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the quartered potatoes with minced garlic, olive oil, Morton’s Nature’s seasoning, salt, paprika, parsley, and shredded Parmesan cheese. Mix well to coat the potatoes evenly with all the flavors.
- Arrange in Air Fryer: Place the coated potatoes into the air fryer basket. Make sure not to overcrowd the basket; cook in batches if necessary to allow air circulation for crispness.
- Cook Potatoes: Set the air fryer to 400°F (204°C) and cook the potatoes for 12-15 minutes until they are tender when pierced with a fork. About halfway through cooking, pause to shake the basket gently, redistributing the potatoes for even cooking and browning.
- Serve: Once cooked through and crispy, remove the potatoes from the air fryer and serve immediately while hot and flavorful.
Notes
- Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket to ensure the potatoes crisp up nicely.
- Shaking the basket halfway through ensures even cooking and browning.
- Parmesan cheese adds a nice savory crust; for a dairy-free version, omit the cheese or use a vegan alternative.
- Adjust seasoning amounts to taste, especially salt and paprika.
- Cooking time may vary slightly depending on air fryer model and potato size.
