Ingredients
Two pounds of potatoes (Yukon Gold or red potatoes work well)
Three tablespoons of olive oil
Two teaspoons of salt
1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
One tablespoon of minced garlic (or one teaspoon of garlic powder)
Two teaspoons of dried herbs (such as rosemary, thyme, or parsley)
One lemon
Optional: 1/2 teaspoon of paprika for a smoky flavor
Instructions
Preheat the Oven
Set your oven to 400°F (204°C) and let it warm up while you prepare the potatoes.
Prepare the Potatoes
Wash the potatoes thoroughly and dry them.
Cut the potatoes into chunks, about 1 to 2 inches in size, trying to keep them uniformly sized for even cooking.
Season the Potatoes
Toss the potato chunks with olive oil in a large bowl until they are well coated.
Add salt, pepper, minced garlic, and your choice of dried herbs. Toss everything until the potatoes are evenly seasoned. If using garlic powder and paprika, add them at this stage too.
Roast the Potatoes
Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on a baking sheet. Make sure they are spread out; this helps them roast better and get a nice golden color.
Place in the oven and roast for about 25-35 minutes or until the potatoes are golden brown and crisp. Halfway through, use a spatula to turn them so they brown evenly.
Serving
Once the potatoes are done, taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
Garnished with fresh herbs and squeezed lemon juice.
Serve hot.
