Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Instructions
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a clean towel.
Cut the potatoes into even cubes, approximately 1-inch in size, to ensure they cook evenly.
Place the potato cubes in a large bowl and add olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to ensure all the pieces are evenly coated with the oil and spices.
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
Place the seasoned potato cubes in the air fryer basket, spreading them out into a single layer. You may need to cook them in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
Cook the potatoes in the air fryer at 400°F (200°C) for 20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking to ensure even crisping.
Check for doneness by piercing a piece with a fork; it should be crispy outside and tender inside.
Once cooked, transfer the air-fried potatoes to a serving plate and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of fresh flavor.
Serve immediately while hot and enjoy your crispy air fryer potatoes as a delightful side dish.
