Potatoes. Thin-skinned, waxy potatoes are best for roasting because they get nice and crispy on the outside, creamy on the inside, and still hold their shape when roasted. Red potatoes, Yukon Golds, or fingerling potatoes are great options. Russet potatoes are an okay choice -- they're starchier and will crisp up nicely, but aren't quite as creamy.
Lipton Onion Soup Mix. Dry onion soup mix contains onion, onion powder, and soy sauce, among other things, which add tons of savory flavors to roasted potatoes. You can use Lipton brand, generic, or a homemade onion soup mix.
Seasonings. I amp up the flavor even more with paprika, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and black pepper. I don't use salt because the soup mix and Parmesan are both salty. Use your favorite seasonings like chili powder or Creole seasoning, and dried herbs like oregano, thyme, basil, and rosemary. For even more flavor, toss hot potatoes with fresh herbs like parsley or thyme.
Parmesan cheese. If possible, use freshly grated Parmesan. I've also had good luck with the kind in tubs or bags in the deli cheese section of the grocery store.
How to Make Lipton Onion Soup Mix Potatoes
Step 1: Wash potatoes and cut into large chunks, about 1" thick. Place potatoes on a rimmed sheet pan.
Step 2: Drizzle potatoes with the olive oil and evenly sprinkle the soup mix, seasonings, and Parmesan cheese over the potatoes. Toss until the potatoes are completely coated and arrange them in an even layer on the pan.
Step 3: Roast at 425 for 30-35 minutes until potatoes are golden brown and pierce easily with a fork.
Step 4: If desired, sprinkle with fresh parsley. Serve with a side of sour cream, Big Mac sauce, or Jack Daniels BBQ Sauce.
