Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds new potatoes
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 teaspoons Herbes de Provence
• 1 whole lemon
• 1 tablespoon coarse sea salt
• 0.5 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 3 whole garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Wash and scrub the new potatoes well, then pat them dry. Halve any larger potatoes to ensure even cooking, leaving smaller ones whole.

Step 3

Place the potatoes in a large mixing bowl. Add the olive oil, Herbes de Provence, freshly ground black pepper, and half the coarse sea salt. Toss to coat the potatoes evenly.

Step 4

Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat for easy cleanup.

Step 5

Smash the garlic cloves lightly with the side of a knife, leaving the skin on, and scatter them among the potatoes on the baking sheet.

Step 6

Zest the lemon directly over the potatoes, distributing it evenly across all pieces.

Step 7

Roast in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, tossing the potatoes once halfway through cooking to ensure even browning. They should be golden and crispy on the outside and tender when pierced with a fork.

Step 8

Once roasted, remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle the remaining coarse sea salt over the potatoes for a final burst of crunch and flavor.

Step 9

Transfer the potatoes to a serving dish. Squeeze the juice of half the lemon over them for a bright, tangy finish.

Step 10

If desired, garnish with freshly chopped parsley for an extra pop of color and freshness before serving.
