Prep Time5 minutes
Cook Time15 minutes
Total Time20 minutes
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 450 g baby potatoes (or medium Yukon Golds, quartered)
  • 5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic grated
  • 4 sprigs rosemary leaves only, finely minced
  • Sea salt to taste
  • freshly-cracked black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). A hot oven is crucial for achieving crispy potatoes.
  • Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly under running water. If using medium Yukon Golds, quarter them into bite-sized pieces.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the washed potatoes, extra-virgin olive oil, grated garlic, minced rosemary, sea salt, and freshly-cracked black pepper. Toss everything together until the potatoes are well-coated.
  • Transfer the seasoned potatoes to a rimmed baking sheet, arranging them in a single layer to ensure even cooking.
  • Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for about 15-20 minutes. Halfway through, use a spatula to flip the potatoes for even browning.
  • The potatoes are done when they are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender when pierced with a fork.
  • Remove from the oven and serve warm. Enjoy your Quick Roasted Potatoes as a side dish to your favorite entree!

Equipment

  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • Baking Sheet
  • Spatula
  • Grater

Notes

  • Ensure your potatoes are cut into uniform sizes for even cooking.
  • Feel free to experiment with different herbs, such as thyme or oregano, if rosemary isn’t your favorite.
  • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the mix!
  • Don’t overcrowd the baking sheet; this allows the potatoes to roast rather than steam.
