Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. Peel them if desired, then cut into 1-inch cubes for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to create a seasoned oil mixture.
Add the potato cubes to the bowl with the seasoned oil. Toss until all the potatoes are evenly coated with the mixture.
Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overlapping. This helps them cook evenly and get crispy.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, turning the potatoes halfway through the cooking time, until they are golden brown and tender when pierced with a fork.
Remove the potatoes from the oven and transfer to a serving platter.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving for a fresh burst of flavor and color.
Serve the smoky potatoes hot as a side dish to complement your favorite main courses.
