Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash and dry the red potatoes. Cut them into 1-inch cubes, leaving the skin on for added nutrients and fiber.
Place the cubed potatoes in a large mixing bowl.
Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil over the potatoes. Toss well to ensure each piece is lightly coated.
In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, dried oregano, black pepper, and sea salt.
Sprinkle the spice mixture over the potatoes, and toss them again to ensure the seasonings are evenly distributed.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or use a non-stick baking sheet. Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on the sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the edges, flipping them halfway through the cooking time for even crispiness.
Once done, remove the potatoes from the oven, let them cool slightly, and garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired.
Serve hot and enjoy your heart-healthy country potatoes as a tasty side dish!
