Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs baby red potatoes
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp onion powder
- 0.5 tsp ground cumin
- 0.25 tsp cayenne pepper
- 0.5 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
Wash the baby red potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. Leave the skins on for added texture and flavor.
Cut the potatoes into bite-sized chunks, ensuring all pieces are roughly the same size for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, ground cumin, cayenne pepper, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.
Add the potato chunks to the bowl and toss them until they are evenly coated with the oil and spice mixture.
Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring there is enough space between pieces for them to crisp up properly.
Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 35–40 minutes, flipping them halfway through cooking to ensure even browning. They should be golden brown and crispy on the outside, tender on the inside.
Once roasted, remove the potatoes from the oven and allow them to cool slightly. Sprinkle fresh parsley on top for a burst of color and freshness before serving.
Serve the Texan Roasted Potatoes hot as a side dish to your favorite grilled meats, burgers, or as a standalone snack with a dipping sauce.
