Ingredients
  • 1.5 lbs Potatoes (Yukon Gold or Russet)
  • 3 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 3 cloves Garlic
  • 1 tbsp Fresh Rosemary
  • 1 tbsp Fresh Thyme
  • 1 tsp Paprika
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 0.5 tsp Black Pepper

Preparation

Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). While the oven is heating, wash the potatoes thoroughly. You can peel them if desired, but leaving the skin on adds texture and nutrients. Dice the potatoes into roughly 1-inch cubes.

Seasoning

In a large bowl, combine the diced potatoes, olive oil, minced garlic, chopped fresh rosemary, chopped fresh thyme, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss everything together until the potatoes are evenly coated with the oil and seasonings. Ensure that every piece has a good amount of seasoning.

Roasting

Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. This prevents sticking and ensures even browning. Roast in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Flip the potatoes halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.

Serving

Once the potatoes are roasted to perfection, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Serve hot as a side dish with eggs, bacon, sausage, or your favorite breakfast items. Garnish with extra fresh herbs, if desired.
