Ingredients

• 6 pieces medium-sized Yukon Gold potatoes
• 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
• 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, chopped
• 2 teaspoons fresh thyme, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

Wash and scrub the potatoes under cold water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a kitchen towel.

Step 3

Cut the potatoes into uniform 1-inch cubes to ensure even cooking.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the potato cubes, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Toss until all the potatoes are evenly coated.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme to the bowl and mix well with the potatoes.

Step 6

Spread the seasoned potatoes onto a large baking sheet in a single layer to ensure they roast evenly.

Step 7

Place the baking sheet on the middle rack of the preheated oven.

Step 8

Roast for 40 to 45 minutes, turning the potatoes halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside.

Step 9

Check the potatoes for doneness by inserting a fork; they should be tender on the inside.

Step 10

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the potatoes cool for a few minutes before serving.

Step 11

Garnish with additional rosemary or thyme if desired, and serve warm.
