Ingredients
Potatoes
- 2 lbs potatoes (Yukon Gold or Russet, washed and scrubbed)
Seasoning and Oil
- 2-3 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp paprika (use chili powder for more spice)
- 1/2 tsp dried thyme
- 1/2 tsp dried rosemary
- 1/2 tsp dried oregano
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
Garnish (Optional)
- Fresh parsley or chives (chopped)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or lightly greasing it to prevent sticking.
- Prepare Potatoes: Cut potatoes into 1-inch bite-sized cubes or wedges, leaving the skin on for added texture and nutrients.
- Season Potatoes: In a large bowl, toss the cut potatoes with olive oil until evenly coated. Add garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dried thyme, rosemary, oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss thoroughly to ensure each piece is well seasoned.
- Roast Potatoes: Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast them in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through cooking to ensure even browning and crispiness.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove potatoes from the oven once they are golden brown and crispy on the outside but tender inside. Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley or chives if desired. Serve hot as a tasty side dish.
Notes
- You can substitute chili powder for paprika if you prefer a spicier flavor.
- Leaving the skin on the potatoes adds extra fiber and nutrients.
- For air fryer cooking, roast at 400°F for about 20-25 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
- Make sure to cut potatoes in uniform sizes for even cooking.
- Adjust seasoning to your taste for more or less spice.
