Ingredients
Scale
Potatoes and Herbs
- 2 lb. baby potatoes, quartered
- 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp. chopped fresh rosemary
- 1 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tbsp. fresh thyme leaves
Seasoning and Oil
- 1/4 c. extra-virgin olive oil
- Kosher salt, to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Pinch of crushed red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) to allow it to reach the ideal roasting temperature while you prepare the potatoes.
- Prepare the potatoes: In a large bowl, toss the quartered baby potatoes with finely chopped garlic, extra-virgin olive oil, fresh rosemary, parsley, and thyme leaves. Season the mixture generously with kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper, and a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes to add a subtle heat.
- Arrange for roasting: Pour the seasoned potatoes onto a large metal baking sheet. Spread them out evenly in a single layer, which ensures they roast uniformly and develop a perfect crispy exterior.
- Roast the potatoes: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes. Roast until the potatoes are golden brown on the outside and tender inside when pierced with a fork.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, flip the potatoes halfway through the baking time.
- Use fresh herbs for the best flavor, but dried can be substituted; adjust quantities accordingly.
- If you prefer a milder garlic taste, roast whole garlic cloves with the potatoes instead of chopped garlic.
- This recipe is easily doubled or halved depending on the number of servings needed.
- Serve immediately for maximum texture and flavor.
