Indulge in the comforting simplicity of "Garlic Roasted Potatoes," a Barefoot Contessa classic by Ina Garten. This crowd-pleasing side dish transforms humble red or Yukon Gold potatoes into golden, crispy perfection with the help of fragrant minced garlic, extra-virgin olive oil, and a sprinkle of kosher salt and black pepper. Roasted to a beautifully caramelized texture in just 45 minutes, these potatoes are an effortless addition to any meal, from weeknight dinners to festive gatherings. Garnished with fresh parsley for an optional pop of flavor and color, this recipe is as easy to prepare as it is delicious. Perfectly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, these garlic roasted potatoes are your ultimate go-to side dish for flavor-packed simplicity.
Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C).
Wash and dry the potatoes. Cut them into 1-inch cubes for even cooking.
Place the potato cubes in a large mixing bowl. Add olive oil, minced garlic, kosher salt, and black pepper. Toss everything together until the potatoes are evenly coated.
Spread the potatoes out onto a baking sheet in a single layer. Make sure they arenβt overcrowded to ensure they turn crispy.
Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, tossing occasionally (about every 15 minutes) to ensure even browning.
Once the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the outside, remove them from the oven.
Sprinkle the roasted potatoes with freshly minced parsley, if desired, for a burst of color and flavor.
Serve immediately as a side dish and enjoy!
