Description

Parmesan Roasted Leeks are a simple yet elegant side dish featuring tender roasted leeks topped with a golden, cheesy parmesan crust—perfect for dinner parties or holiday meals.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 4 large leeks, trimmed and halved lengthwise
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Clean the leeks thoroughly to remove any grit, then pat dry.
  3. Arrange the leeks cut-side up in a baking dish or on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  4. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  5. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese evenly over the leeks. Add thyme if using.
  6. Roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the leeks are tender and the cheese is golden and crispy.
  7. Serve warm as a savory side dish.

Notes

  • Be sure to rinse between leek layers to remove all dirt before roasting.
  • Try adding a squeeze of lemon juice after roasting for a bright flavor boost.
  • Pairs well with roasted meats or as a vegetarian main with a grain salad.
