Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds baby potatoes
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Step 2
Wash and scrub the baby potatoes thoroughly. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Step 3
Cut the potatoes into halves or quarters, depending on their size, so all pieces are roughly the same size.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, salt, black pepper, lemon juice, and lemon zest.
Step 5
Add the potato pieces to the bowl and toss them until they are well coated with the olive oil mixture.
Step 6
Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Step 7
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the potatoes for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the potatoes are golden brown and tender when pierced with a fork.
Step 8
Once done, remove the roasted potatoes from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
Step 9
Serve the garlic roasted potatoes warm, garnished with additional fresh herbs if desired.
