Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb baby red potatoes
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 0.5 tsp ground cayenne pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 0.75 tsp sea salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Wash and scrub the baby red potatoes thoroughly, then pat them dry with a kitchen towel.
Cut the potatoes into even-sized halves (or quarters if they are larger) for even roasting.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, smoked paprika, ground cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
Add the potatoes to the bowl and toss until all the potato pieces are evenly coated with the spice mixture.
Spread the coated potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overlapping for maximum crispiness.
Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through for even browning.
Once the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the edges, remove them from the oven.
Sprinkle the roasted potatoes with fresh parsley if desired, and serve immediately.
