Equipment

  • Baking Sheet for roasting potatoes
  • Sharp Knife and Cutting Board to half larger sized potatoes
  • Mixing Bowl optional, for even seasoning of potatoes.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound Red Baby Potatoes
  • 1/2 pound Yellow Baby Potatoes
  • 2 tbsp Butter melted
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 tbsp Italian Seasoning
  • 1 tsp Paprika
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • Salt and Pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash the potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry. If they’re larger baby potatoes, cut them in half for even cooking.
  • In a large bowl, combine the melted butter, olive oil, Italian seasoning, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  • Add the potatoes to the bowl and toss until they’re evenly coated in the seasoning mixture, then transfer the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet (line with parchment paper if desired).
  • Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the potatoes are golden brown and tender when pierced with a fork and enjoy!

Notes

Don't Crowd the Pan: Spread the potatoes in a single layer with space between each piece. Overcrowding traps steam, making the potatoes soggy instead of crispy. Use two baking sheets if needed.
Flip Halfway Through: Use tongs or a spatula to flip the potatoes about halfway through cooking. This ensures they cook evenly on all sides, giving them a golden, crispy exterior.
