Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds baby potatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 1 tablespoon parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry with a paper towel. If they are larger, cut them into halves or quarters to ensure even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, fresh rosemary, fresh thyme, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix well to create a flavorful herb-oil mixture.
Add the potatoes to the bowl and toss them thoroughly to ensure they are evenly coated with the herb-oil mixture.
Spread the coated potatoes evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a lightly greased baking tray. Avoid overcrowding the potatoes for better crispiness.
Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning.
Check for doneness by piercing a potato with a fork; it should be tender on the inside and crispy on the outside when done.
Remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool for a minute or two. If desired, garnish with freshly chopped parsley for an added burst of color and flavor.
Serve the herbed roasted potatoes warm as a side dish to your favorite main course.
