Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 teaspoons Paprika (smoked or sweet)
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Peel them if desired, or leave the skins on for added texture and nutrients. Cut the potatoes into bite-sized cubes (approximately 1-inch pieces).
Place the cubed potatoes in a large mixing bowl. Add the olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to evenly coat all the potatoes in the seasoning mixture.
Spread the seasoned potatoes out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded for even roasting.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then remove the baking sheet and use a spatula to flip the potatoes. Return them to the oven and roast for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden-brown and crispy on the outside while tender on the inside.
Remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool slightly. If desired, sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the top for a burst of freshness and color.
Serve warm as a side dish alongside your favorite protein, or enjoy them on their own as a flavorful snack. Enjoy!
