Oven Roasted Baby Red Potatoes Ingredients
- 3 pounds of baby red potatoes, with skins intact,
- 2 tablespoons of extra light olive oil,
- 1 1/2 teaspoons of dried parsley,
- 1 teaspoon of sea salt (or 3/4 teaspoon of table salt),
- 1/2 teaspoon of freshly ground pepper,
- 2 cloves of garlic, pressed.
How to make Oven Roasted Baby Red Potatoes :
Cut the potatoes into 1″ to 1 1/2″ pieces, leaving very small ones whole. Place them in a large pot filled halfway with warm water. Bring to a boil and cook for 7-9 minutes until nearly tender. Drain, cover to keep warm, and set aside.
In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 2 cloves of pressed garlic, 1 1/2 teaspoons of dried parsley, 1 teaspoon of sea salt (or 3/4 teaspoon of table salt), and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.
Gently toss the potatoes with the seasoning mixture until evenly coated, using a large mixing bowl for easier tossing.
Transfer the seasoned potatoes to a large, rimmed, non-stick baking sheet, placing them cut side down. Bake at 425°F for 20 minutes or until the sides touching the pan turn golden brown.
Transfer the roasted potatoes to a serving bowl, optionally garnish with chopped fresh dill, and serve.
