Garlic Herb Roasted Potatoes are a simple, crispy-on-the-outside, tender-on-the-inside side dish infused with fresh garlic and herbs like rosemary, thyme, and parsley. Perfectly seasoned and roasted to golden perfection, these potatoes complement a wide variety of main courses and are loved by both adults and kids alike.

Ingredients

Scale

Potatoes

  • 2 pounds Yukon Gold or red potatoes, washed and cut into cubes or wedges

Seasoning

  • 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat Your Oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure it’s hot and ready for perfectly crispy roasting.
  2. Prepare the Potatoes: Wash and dry your potatoes thoroughly, then cut them into evenly sized cubes or wedges. This helps all pieces cook uniformly and develop that ideal golden crust.
  3. Season the Potatoes: In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with olive oil, minced garlic, freshly chopped herbs, salt, and pepper. Make sure every piece is lightly coated to maximize flavor and crispness.
  4. Arrange on a Baking Sheet: Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding for better roasting results and crisper textures.
  5. Roast Until Golden and Tender: Roast in the preheated oven for about 30-40 minutes, flipping halfway through roasting. They are done when golden brown and easily pierced with a fork.
  6. Serve Fresh and Hot: Remove the potatoes from the oven, sprinkle extra fresh herbs on top if you like, and serve immediately for the best taste experience.

Notes

  • Choose starchy potatoes like Yukon Gold or red potatoes for best roasting results.
  • Dry potatoes thoroughly after washing to achieve extra crispiness.
  • Use fresh herbs for maximum flavor impact.
  • Avoid overcrowding the baking sheet to ensure even cooking and browning.
  • Flip potatoes halfway through cooking for uniform crispness on all sides.
  • To add a spicy kick, mix in chili flakes or smoked paprika before roasting.
  • For a cheesy twist, sprinkle grated Parmesan just before serving.
  • To keep it vegan, use plant-based oil alternatives and avoid cheese toppings.
  • Add fresh lemon zest after roasting for a bright citrus note.
  • Experiment with different herbs such as oregano, basil, or dill to customize flavor.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat leftovers in oven or air fryer to maintain crispiness; avoid microwaving.
