Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds baby potatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 teaspoon lime zest
- 3 large garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash and dry the baby potatoes. Cut any larger ones in half to ensure even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, thyme leaves, minced garlic cloves (or finely chopped), sea salt, and black pepper.
Add the potatoes to the bowl and toss until well coated with the mixture.
Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
Roast in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through to ensure even browning.
While the potatoes are roasting, zest a lime and juice it. Set them aside.
Once the potatoes are golden brown and fork-tender, remove them from the oven.
Immediately toss the hot potatoes with the lime juice and lime zest for a fresh, tangy finish.
Transfer the Lime Thyme Potatoes to a serving dish and garnish with a sprinkle of extra fresh thyme leaves, if desired.
Serve warm as a flavorful side dish to your favorite main course.
