Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash and peel the potatoes if desired, though the skin can be left on for extra crispiness and flavor. Cut the potatoes into even, bite-sized pieces, approximately 1-inch cubes.
In a large bowl, toss the potato cubes with olive oil, ensuring they are well-coated.
Add the garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, black pepper, chopped rosemary, and chopped thyme to the bowl. Toss again to evenly coat the potatoes with the seasonings.
Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a large baking sheet, ensuring they have some space between them for proper roasting.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 35 minutes, turning the potatoes halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning.
Once the potatoes are golden brown and crispy outside while tender inside, remove them from the oven.
Serve the roasted potatoes hot as a side to your main dish. Enjoy the subtle complexity of flavor without the added sodium.
