Method
 

Preparation and Baking
  1. Preheat the Oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Halve the baby potatoes. If using larger ones, cross-hatch them for even cooking. Combine in a bowl with buffalo sauce, olive oil, thyme, parsley, garlic powder, and black pepper, stirring until well-coated.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix the grated parmesan, white cheddar, melted butter, and a splash of buffalo sauce. Spread this cheesy mixture evenly on a baking sheet.
  4. Carefully place the potatoes cut side down over the cheese mixture, making sure there’s space between them for a crunchy finish.
  5. Bake for 30 minutes or until the cheese forms a crispy crust and the potatoes are tender.
  6. Allow the potatoes to rest for 5 minutes, then sprinkle with sea salt and chopped green onions before serving with extra buffalo sauce on the side.
