Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Wash and dry the fingerling potatoes thoroughly. Slice them in half lengthwise for optimal roasting.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped fresh rosemary, salt, black pepper, and paprika (if using). Mix well.
Add the halved fingerling potatoes to the bowl and toss them until they are evenly coated in the seasoning mixture.
Spread the potatoes out on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are in a single layer with the cut sides facing down for even crisping.
Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through to ensure uniform browning.
Check for doneness by piercing the potatoes with a forkβ they should be golden brown and tender on the inside.
Remove the potatoes from the oven, let them cool for a few minutes, and serve immediately. Optionally, garnish with additional rosemary sprigs for presentation.
