Ingredients
Scale
Potatoes
- 2 pounds red potatoes (halved or quartered depending on size)
Seasonings & Oil
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning (or dried oregano)
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Garnish
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425℉ and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper to ensure easy cleanup and prevent sticking.
- Toss Potatoes with Seasonings: In a large bowl, combine the halved or quartered red potatoes with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, Italian seasoning, and black pepper. Toss well to evenly coat each piece.
- Arrange and Bake: Spread the seasoned potatoes evenly on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are in a single layer for even cooking. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through baking to achieve a golden brown and crispy texture on all sides.
- Garnish and Serve: Once roasted to perfection, remove the potatoes from the oven and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a bright, fresh finish. Serve warm as a delicious side dish.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, make sure the potatoes are cut into evenly sized pieces and spaced out on the baking sheet without overcrowding.
- You can substitute Italian seasoning with dried oregano, thyme, or rosemary based on your preference.
- Leftover roasted potatoes can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven for best texture.
