This technique creates those lovely fan shapes. In a small bowl, mix 1/4 cup of olive oil, 2 teaspoons of dried oregano, 2 teaspoons of dried thyme, and 2 teaspoons of garlic powder. Add salt and pepper to taste. Stir until everything blends well. Brush this mixture over each potato. Make sure it seeps into the slices. Then, sprinkle 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese over them.

Feel free to play with herbs in this recipe. Instead of oregano, try rosemary or basil for a fresh twist. If you love a bit of heat, add red pepper flakes.

Ingredients
  

4 medium-sized russet potatoes

1/4 cup olive oil

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 teaspoons dried oregano

2 teaspoons dried thyme

2 teaspoons garlic powder

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. Pat them dry.

      Place a potato on a cutting board and use two wooden chopsticks on either side of the potato as a guide. This will prevent you from cutting all the way through.

        Carefully slice the potato into thin slices (about 1/8 inch apart) without cutting through to the base, using the chopsticks to limit your depth. Repeat for all potatoes.

          In a small bowl, mix olive oil, oregano, thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until blended.

            Brush the olive oil mixture generously over the potatoes, ensuring some seeps between the slices.

              Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese evenly over each potato.

                Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes, or until crispy and golden brown on the outside and tender inside.

                  After baking, remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes.

                    Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
