Learn how to make perfect oven roasted potatoes with this simple recipe. Crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and seasoned to perfection, these roasted potatoes are a versatile side dish that complements any meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds baby potatoes (or Yukon Gold potatoes)
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Wash and scrub the potatoes. If using larger potatoes, cut them into even-sized pieces, about 1-2 inches.
  3. In a large bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, rosemary, salt, and pepper.
  4. Add the potatoes to the bowl and toss well to ensure they are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
  5. Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or lightly greased.
  6. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Roast for 30-40 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through for even cooking.
  7. Potatoes are done when they are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender when pierced with a fork.
  8. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley if desired.

Notes

  • For best flavor and texture, choose fresh, firm potatoes.
  • Cut potatoes into evenly sized pieces to ensure they cook evenly.
  • Do not overcrowd the baking sheet; space potatoes out for crispiness.
  • Experiment with different herbs like thyme or basil.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
