- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 6 large Garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and dry the Yukon gold potatoes, then cut them into 1-inch cubes for even cooking.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cubed potatoes, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the potatoes are well coated.
Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure they are not overcrowded to allow even roasting.
Roast in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.
Finely chop the fresh rosemary and zest the lemon while the potatoes roast.
Once the potatoes are golden brown and crispy, remove them from the oven.
Sprinkle the roasted potatoes with the chopped rosemary and lemon zest before serving. Toss gently to distribute the flavors evenly.
