Ingredients

• 6 medium-sized (about 2 lbs) Yellow or Yukon Gold potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.

Step 2

Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Peel them if desired, or leave the skins on for added texture and flavor.

Step 3

Cut the potatoes into bite-sized cubes, roughly 1-inch in size, for even roasting.

Step 4

Place the potato cubes in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle olive oil over the potatoes and toss to coat evenly.

Step 5

In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, smoked paprika, dried thyme, salt, and ground black pepper.

Step 6

Sprinkle the spice mixture over the potatoes and toss again until all the pieces are evenly coated with seasoning.

Step 7

Spread the seasoned potatoes out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded to promote even browning.

Step 8

Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove the baking sheet, flip the potatoes over with a spatula, and return to the oven.

Step 9

Continue roasting for another 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

Step 10

Remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool slightly. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired before serving warm.
