These Potatoes Are So Good You’ll Want to Eat Them Every Day Recipe
Ingredients:
- 2 pounds baby potatoes (or regular potatoes, cut into cubes)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary (or fresh, chopped)
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese (optional for an extra savory kick)
Instructions:
- Prep the Potatoes: If you’re using baby potatoes, simply wash them well and cut them in half. If you’re using larger potatoes, peel them (optional) and cut them into bite-sized cubes. The key is to keep the pieces uniform so they cook evenly.
- Boil the Potatoes: In a large pot, fill it with water and bring it to a boil. Add a pinch of salt to the water, then toss in your cut potatoes. Let them cook for about 5-7 minutes, just until they’re slightly tender but still firm. This step helps ensure they cook evenly in the oven and become perfectly crispy. Drain the potatoes and let them sit for a minute to dry out slightly.
- Season the Potatoes: In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, onion powder, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Add the boiled potatoes to the bowl and toss gently until they are evenly coated in the seasoning mixture.
- Roast to Perfection: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat for easy cleanup. Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheet, making sure they’re not overcrowded. This allows them to roast evenly and get that crispy texture.
- Roast and Flip: Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through for an even golden-brown finish. You’ll know they’re done when they’re crispy on the outside and fork-tender on the inside. For an extra crispy finish, you can broil them for an additional 2-3 minutes.
- Add the Finishing Touches: Once the potatoes are out of the oven, sprinkle them with fresh parsley and a bit of grated Parmesan cheese (if using) for added flavor and a beautiful presentation.
