Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds baby potatoes
• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

Step 2

Wash and dry the baby potatoes. If they are larger than bite-sized, cut them in half or quarters to ensure even cooking.

Step 3

In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, dried thyme, black pepper, and salt.

Step 4

Add the potatoes to the bowl and toss them until they are evenly coated with the spice mixture.

Step 5

Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded to allow even roasting.

Step 6

Roast in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the outside, and tender on the inside.

Step 7

Remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes. Sprinkle finely chopped fresh parsley over the top before serving.

Step 8

Serve warm as a side dish to your favorite heart-healthy meal. Enjoy the crispy, flavorful potatoes!
