3-Ingredient Garlic Potatoes (Printer-Friendly Version)

Easy garlic potatoes with olive oil and Italian herbs, roasted to golden crispness in under an hour.

# What You'll Need:

→ Vegetables

01 - 4-5 large potatoes, cut into 1 to 1.5 inch chunks

→ Oils & Fats

02 - 4 tablespoons olive oil

→ Seasonings

03 - 2 teaspoons Italian herbs
04 - 3 teaspoons garlic powder
05 - ½ teaspoon salt
06 - ½ teaspoon black pepper

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Wash and dry potatoes thoroughly. Cut into evenly sized chunks about 1 to 1.5 inches to ensure uniform cooking. Pat dry to enhance crispness.
02 - In a large bowl, combine potato chunks with olive oil, Italian herbs, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss thoroughly to coat each piece evenly.
03 - Preheat oven to 425°F. Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a parchment-lined or lightly oiled baking sheet, avoiding overlap to promote browning.
04 - Roast for 30 to 35 minutes, flipping halfway through for even golden edges and tender centers. Optionally, broil for 2 to 3 minutes at the end for extra crispness—watch carefully to prevent burning.
05 - Transfer to serving platter immediately. Optionally garnish with coarse sea salt or fresh herbs to enhance flavor and appearance.

# Additional Tips:

01 - Cut potatoes uniformly for even roasting and preheat the baking sheet to achieve a crisp bottom crust.
02 - Avoid overcrowding the pan to allow proper air circulation; flipped halfway through roasting for uniform color.
03 - When substituting fresh garlic for powder, add minced garlic halfway through roasting to prevent burning.
