Ingredients Needeed
- 6 medium Yukon Gold potatoes (about 1 1/2 pounds), peeled (optional) and cut into chunks
- 3 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- Kosher salt, to taste
- Freshly ground pepper, to taste
- Desired seasonings (such as garlic cloves, fresh or dried herbs, spices, grated cheese, or lemon juice)
How To Make Roasted Potatoes
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F.
- Prepare the potatoes: Toss the potato chunks with olive oil and any seasonings you like (garlic, herbs, spices, etc.) on a baking sheet. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground pepper.
- Arrange and roast: Arrange the potatoes cut side down on the baking sheet and roast for 20 to 25 minutes, or until they are fork-tender and crispy on the outside.
- Serve: Serve the potatoes warm as a delicious side dish to your favorite meal.
Recipe Tips
- Cut potatoes evenly: Make sure all your potato chunks are the same size. This ensures they cook at the same rate and become evenly crispy.
- Use a hot oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F. A hot oven helps the potatoes get crispy on the outside while staying soft inside.
- Don’t overcrowd the pan: Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on the baking sheet. If they are too close together, they’ll steam instead of roasting and won’t get as crispy.
- Flip halfway through: For even crispiness, flip the potatoes halfway through roasting. This way, both sides get a nice golden brown finish.
- Experiment with seasonings: Try different seasonings like garlic, rosemary, or Parmesan cheese. A little extra flavor can elevate the dish and make it more exciting.
How To Store & Reheat Leftovers
- Refrigerate: Store leftover roasted potatoes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Freeze: Freeze leftover roasted potatoes in a container or bag for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge, then reheat in the oven to get them crispy again.
- Reheating: Reheat leftover roasted potatoes in the oven at 350°F for 7 minutes until hot and crispy, or use a microwave for a quicker option, but the texture may not be as crispy.
