Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Wash the potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry with paper towels. Leaving the skin on adds extra nutrients and flavor to the dish.
Cut the potatoes into quarters if they are small, or into 1-inch cubes if they are medium-sized. Aim for uniform pieces to ensure even cooking.
In a large bowl, combine the potato pieces with extra virgin olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, dried rosemary, dried thyme, sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Toss until the potatoes are well coated with the seasoning mixture.
Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper. This helps to prevent sticking and aids in cleanup.
Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, turning them halfway through cooking to ensure they are evenly browned on all sides.
Check for doneness by inserting a fork into the potatoes. They should be golden brown and crispy on the outside while tender on the inside.
Remove the potatoes from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve immediately while the potatoes are hot and crispy. Enjoy your Paleo Olive Oil Roasted Potatoes as a side dish with your favorite main course.
