Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. Leave the skins on for added nutrition.
Cut the potatoes into 1-inch chunks, ensuring the pieces are as uniform as possible for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cut potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, black pepper, and sea salt. Toss well to ensure the potatoes are evenly coated with the seasoning.
Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 3 minutes.
Add the seasoned potatoes to the air fryer basket in a single layer. Make sure not to overcrowd the basket to allow for proper air circulation.
Air-fry the potatoes for about 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning.
Check for doneness at the 15-minute mark. The potatoes should be golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. You may need to adjust the time based on your specific air fryer model.
Once cooked, remove the potatoes from the air fryer and transfer them to a serving bowl.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy your heart-healthy crispy air-fried potatoes as a side dish or snack.
