Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash and dry the fingerling potatoes, leaving the skin on for extra fiber.
Cut the potatoes lengthwise in half to ensure even roasting.
Mince the garlic cloves.
In a large bowl, combine the halved potatoes, olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, black pepper, and sea salt. Toss until the potatoes are well coated.
Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Ensuring they are evenly spaced will help achieve a crisp exterior.
Roast in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and tender when pierced with a fork.
Halfway through the cooking time, use a spatula to toss the potatoes gently for even cooking.
Once roasted, remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
Garnish with a sprinkle of additional fresh herbs if desired, and serve as a side dish to your favorite heart-healthy main.
