Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry with paper towels. Leave the skin on for extra crispiness.
Cut the potatoes into even 1-inch cubes to ensure uniform cooking.
In a large bowl, toss the potato cubes with the olive oil, making sure they are evenly coated.
Combine salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, thyme, and rosemary in a small bowl. Mix well.
Sprinkle the spice mixture over the oiled potatoes and toss again to ensure each piece is seasoned.
Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then remove the baking sheet and flip each potato piece with a spatula for even browning.
Return the potatoes to the oven and continue roasting for an additional 25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Serve immediately as a delicious, healthy side dish.
