Ingredients

• 2 pounds Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Freshly cracked black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.

Step 2

Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly, then pat them dry. If desired, peel the potatoes, though leaving the skin on adds flavor and texture.

Step 3

Cut the potatoes into uniform bite-sized pieces, approximately 1-inch cubes, for even cooking.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the potatoes are evenly coated with the seasoning.

Step 5

Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are evenly spaced. Overcrowding the pan will prevent them from crisping properly.

Step 6

Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, flipping them halfway through to ensure even browning, until they are golden and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

Step 7

Remove the potatoes from the oven and transfer them to a serving platter. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, for an extra burst of color and flavor.

Step 8

Serve immediately and enjoy your crispy roasted potatoes!
