Ingredients
- 2 pounds red potatoes
- 1.5 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
Wash and dry the red potatoes thoroughly. Cut them into uniform 1-inch cubes to ensure even cooking.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cubed potatoes with 1.5 tablespoons of olive oil, 0.5 teaspoons of salt, 0.25 teaspoons of black pepper, 0.5 teaspoons of garlic powder, and 1 teaspoon of dried thyme. Stir well to ensure each piece is evenly coated with the seasoning and oil.
Step 4
Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring there is space between the pieces for optimal crispiness.
Step 5
Place the baking sheet on the center rack of the preheated oven. Roast the potatoes for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden-brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Step 6
After removing the potatoes from the oven, sprinkle 2 tablespoons of freshly chopped parsley over the potatoes for added flavor and color.
Step 7
Serve immediately as a side dish or snack, enjoying the perfectly roasted, low-fat goodness.
