Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs Baby potatoes
- 4 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 tbsp Fresh rosemary (chopped)
- 1 tbsp Fresh thyme (chopped)
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Ground black pepper
- 2 tbsp Parmesan cheese (optional, grated)
- 1 tbsp Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Rinse the baby potatoes thoroughly under cold water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. Halve any large potatoes to ensure even cooking.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter and stir in the olive oil. Add the minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, paprika, salt, and ground black pepper. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat.
Place the prepared potatoes in a large mixing bowl. Pour the herbed butter mixture over the potatoes and toss well to coat evenly.
Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, cut side down for maximum crispiness.
Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, flipping them halfway through cooking to ensure they brown evenly on all sides.
Optional: During the final 5 minutes of roasting, sprinkle the potatoes with grated Parmesan cheese for an extra savory touch.
Remove the roasted potatoes from the oven and transfer them to a serving platter. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve warm as a side dish or enjoy them on their own with your favorite dipping sauce!
