Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 2 lbs russet potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or avocado oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground pepper
  • Fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with cooking spray to prevent the potatoes from sticking.
  2. Scrub your potatoes thoroughly under running water and chop them into ½ inch chunks for even roasting.
  3. Place the potato chunks into a large bowl and toss with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and ground pepper until fully coated.
  4. Spread the seasoned potatoes evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through cooking to ensure even golden brown crispiness and tenderness.
  5. Check the potatoes by piercing them with a fork to confirm they are tender. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Garnish with fresh parsley or other fresh herbs and serve immediately.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, soak the potato chunks in cold water for 30 minutes before cooking, then dry thoroughly.
  • You can substitute russet potatoes with Yukon gold for a creamier texture.
  • Use avocado oil instead of olive oil for a higher smoke point and subtle flavor.
  • Add smoked paprika or rosemary for additional flavor variations.
  • Make sure to flip the potatoes halfway during baking to ensure even browning.
