Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 lbs baby potatoes (preferably gold or red) Can substitute with larger potatoes, cut into smaller pieces.
  • 3 tbsp olive oil Ensure enough oil for crispiness.
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika (or normal paprika) Smoked paprika adds an extra depth of flavor.
  • 1 tsp dried oregano Can be substituted with rosemary or thyme.
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley or chives, for garnishing (optional)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure that your potatoes crisp up perfectly.
  2. Rinse the baby potatoes thoroughly and halve or quarter them if they are larger for even roasting.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss until fully coated.
Cooking
  1. Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded for optimal crispness.
  2. Roast in the oven for 30-40 minutes, or until golden brown and fork-tender, stirring halfway through for even browning.
  3. Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and garnish with fresh parsley or chives if desired. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days or freeze for 1-2 months. Reheat in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes until hot and crispy.
