Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs baby potatoes
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 0.5 tsp red chili flakes
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Wash and scrub the baby potatoes thoroughly. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Cut the potatoes into halves, or quarters if they are larger, ensuring the pieces are roughly the same size for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, dried oregano, red chili flakes, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a marinade.
Add the potatoes to the bowl and toss until all the pieces are evenly coated with the spice mixture.
Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure they are not overcrowded, as this helps them roast evenly and develop a crispy exterior.
Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are golden brown and fork-tender.
Remove the potatoes from the oven and immediately drizzle them with fresh lemon juice. Toss gently to combine.
Transfer the roasted potatoes to a serving dish and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of freshness.
Serve warm and enjoy your Peppy Paprika Potatoes as a side dish or snack!
