Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 1 dash Olive oil spray
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). While the oven is preheating, wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. Leave the skin on for extra fiber and nutrients.
Cut the potatoes into 1-inch cubes for even cooking. Try to keep the pieces uniform in size to ensure they cook at the same rate.
Place the cubed potatoes into a large mixing bowl. Lightly coat them with a dash of olive oil spray, ensuring all the pieces are covered.
In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle this spice mixture over the potatoes and toss them in the bowl until evenly coated.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes. About halfway through cooking, stir the potatoes gently to ensure they brown evenly.
After 30 minutes, check the potatoes for doneness by piercing a piece with a fork; they should be tender inside with a slightly crispy exterior. If additional cooking time is needed, continue to bake for another 5-10 minutes.
Remove the potatoes from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for added freshness and flavor.
Serve hot as a delightful low-fat side dish to your favorite meal or enjoy as a hearty breakfast option.
