- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and dry the baby potatoes thoroughly. Cut them into halves or quarters, ensuring pieces are roughly the same size for even cooking.
Place the potato pieces in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil.

Toss the potatoes until they are well coated with the olive oil and seasoning mixture.
Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are evenly distributed to allow air circulation for crispiness.
Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, turning them halfway through baking for even browning.
Once the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the outside, remove them from the oven.
Transfer the cooked potatoes to a serving dish and garnish with 2 tablespoons of freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve immediately for the best texture and enjoy your heart-healthy crispy oven roast potatoes.
