Ingredients

• 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 large Garlic cloves
• 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary
• 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.

Step 2

Peel and cut the Yukon Gold potatoes into 1-inch cubes, ensuring they are roughly the same size to ensure even cooking.

Step 3

Rinse the potato cubes in cold water to remove excess starch, then pat them dry thoroughly with a clean kitchen towel.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the potatoes with olive oil, finely minced garlic, chopped fresh rosemary, and thyme.

Step 5

Add salt and black pepper to the potato mixture and toss them well to ensure they are evenly coated with the seasonings.

Step 6

Spread the seasoned potatoes out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, with enough space between each piece to promote even browning.

Step 7

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 25 minutes, then carefully flip the potatoes with a spatula to ensure even roasting.

Step 8

Return to the oven and continue roasting for an additional 20 minutes or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy.

Step 9

Once roasted, remove from the oven and allow the potatoes to cool slightly on the baking sheet for 5 minutes.

Step 10

Transfer the potatoes to a serving platter and garnish with chopped fresh parsley, then serve immediately while hot and crisp.
