What’s in Oven Roasted Potatoes?
These delicious seasoned potatoes are incredibly versatile and they are a hit among both kids and adults. If I can’t decide on a side dish to make with dinner, this is what I end up making. It’s my go-to potato side dish recipe because it’s just so good.
Potatoes: I used Yukon Gold potatoes because they’re the perfect balance of waxy and starchy. You can really use Yukon Golds for any potato recipe! Other potatoes I’d recommend for this recipe would be red, purple, new, or fingerling potatoes. Olive Oil: Helps the potatoes bake up crisp without burning. Salt + Pepper: Enhances the natural flavor of the potatoes. Herbs: Here’s where you can really get creative — I used rosemary, garlic powder, crushed red pepper flakes, and a bit of lemon peel for a simple side that goes with everything. but use your favorites!
Pro Tip: Place the potatoes cut-side down on the baking sheet to get them extra crisp!
Variations on Roasted Potatoes in the Oven
Like I said, this recipe is perfect for getting creative. I love my potatoes topped with chili powder, thyme, herbs de Provence, Italian seasoning, ranch seasoning, everything bagel seasoning, or taco seasoning. The possibilities are truly endless!
