Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Wash and halve the baby red potatoes, ensuring even sizes for cooking. Pat them dry to enhance crispiness.
  2. Combine the halved potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, smoked paprika, Parmesan, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Toss to coat thoroughly.
  3. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 5 minutes. Arrange the potatoes in a single layer in the basket.
  4. Cook for 10 minutes, then shake the basket to stir the potatoes for even cooking. Return to the air fryer for another 8-10 minutes until golden brown.
  5. Once ready, remove the potatoes, drizzle with lemon juice, and sprinkle with parsley. Serve warm.
