Ingredients:
- 1 ½ pounds red potatoes, washed and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
- Prepare the Potatoes: Place the cut red potatoes in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat evenly.
- Season the Potatoes: In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, rosemary, thyme, paprika, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Sprinkle the seasoning mix over the potatoes and toss again to ensure all pieces are well coated.
- Roast the Potatoes: Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the outside, and tender on the inside. Flip the potatoes halfway through the cooking time to ensure even roasting.
- Serve: Remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve hot and enjoy!
These seasoned red potatoes pair well with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad. Enjoy!
