Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs (about 1 kg) baby potatoes or Yukon gold potatoes, washed and diced into 1-inch pieces
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary or thyme (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  • Preheat the Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
    • Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
  • Prepare the Potatoes:
    • In a large bowl, toss the diced potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, rosemary (if using), salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  • Arrange on Baking Sheet:
    • Spread the potatoes out on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Make sure they’re not overcrowded to ensure even roasting and maximum crispiness.
  • Roast the Potatoes:
    • Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through, until they’re golden brown and crispy.
  • Garnish and Serve:
    • Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley for a pop of color and added flavor. Serve immediately as a side dish.

Notes

  • Potato Varieties: Baby potatoes, Yukon golds, or red potatoes work best, but you can also use russets for an extra-crispy texture.
  • Seasoning Options: Customize with your favorite spices, such as chili powder for heat or Italian seasoning for a Mediterranean flair.
  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer to restore crispiness.
  • Air Fryer Option: Roast the potatoes in an air fryer at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
