Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C).
Wash and scrub the yellow potatoes thoroughly. Leave the skins on for extra flavor and texture.
Cut the potatoes into 1-inch cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, sweet paprika, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to create the seasoning mixture.
Pour the seasoning mixture over the cubed potatoes and toss well to coat evenly.
Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, flipping them halfway through to ensure even browning.
Once golden and crispy on the edges, remove the potatoes from the oven and drizzle with fresh lemon juice.
Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley to garnish and serve immediately.
