Marty'S Oven New Potatoes
Oven-roasted new potatoes with buttery, savory seasonings and Parmesan cheese, perfect as a side dish for family dinners or casual gatherings.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Scrub the potatoes and place them in an ovenproof casserole, peeling a ring around each potato.
- Spray the potatoes with butter flavor cooking spray or pour melted butter over them.
- Sprinkle lemon pepper, onion salt, garlic salt, and seasoned salt evenly over the potatoes.
- Bake at 350°F until tender, with the lid on the casserole.
Tips & Substitutions
For an extra flavor boost, consider adding fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme along with the seasonings. If you prefer a lighter version, using butter flavor cooking spray instead of melted butter will still yield delicious results. You can also substitute the Parmesan cheese with nutritional yeast for a vegan option, fitting well into vegetarian recipes.
Serving Suggestions
These oven-baked new potatoes pair beautifully with grilled meats or fish, making them a perfect side dish for summer barbecues. They also complement salads like Mom'S Vegetable Dish Casserole, bringing a hearty touch to your meal. For a complete dinner, serve them alongside a light coleslaw or steamed vegetables.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use other types of potatoes for this recipe?
Yes, while new potatoes are recommended for their texture, Idaho potatoes work well too. Just adjust the cooking time if you choose larger potatoes, as they may take longer to become tender.
What can I do if I don’t have all the seasonings listed?
If you're missing some seasonings, you can use a general seasoning blend or a mix of salt, pepper, and any herbs you have on hand. The key is to add flavors that complement the potatoes without overwhelming them.
How do I make this recipe dairy-free?
To make this recipe dairy-free, simply replace the melted butter with a plant-based butter or olive oil. Additionally, you can skip the Parmesan cheese or use a dairy-free cheese alternative for flavor.
