Herb Roasted Potatoes

  • Easy preparation makes them ideal for busy cooks.
  • Packed with fresh herbs, bringing a burst of flavor to your plate.
  • Perfect for any occasion: picnics, barbecues, or family dinners.

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds baby potatoes, halved
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

How to Make

To start, preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). In a large bowl, combine the halved baby potatoes, olive oil, garlic powder, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper. Toss the potatoes until they are completely coated in the oil and herbs. Transfer the potatoes to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spreading them out evenly. Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp, turning halfway through for even cooking. Once done, remove from the oven and garnish with fresh parsley before serving!

Tips

For the best results, try to cut the potatoes into similar sizes for even roasting. You can also experiment with different herbs, like oregano or basil, to customize the flavor!

Make-Ahead

These roasted potatoes can be prepared a day in advance. Simply coat them with olive oil and herbs, store in an airtight container, and roast the next day. Just add a few extra minutes to the cooking time if they’re chilled from the fridge.

Storing

Store any leftover roasted potatoes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.

Freezing

While it’s best to enjoy them fresh, you can freeze roasted potatoes. Let them cool completely, then store in a freezer-safe container for up to three months.

Reheating

Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes or until warmed through. This will help restore their crispiness!

Serving Suggestions

These Herb Roasted Potatoes pair beautifully with grilled meats, salads, or can be served as a hearty snack on their own. Enjoy them with your favorite dipping sauce!
