The thing I like most about this recipe is that it's fast, simple and versatile as well as always being a crowd pleaser. You can take this basic recipe and make it your own, adding what ever your family likes in terms of seasonings. Read more . It's as easy as cutting up the 'taters, mixing them with a few ingredients and dumping them onto a baking sheet and roasting. Cut, mix, dump, bake.... WOW! What could better?
Ingredients:
2 pounds red potatoes
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, chopped very finely.
1 tablespoon fresh or dried herb of choice.
1/2 teaspoon salt
fresh ground pepper to taste
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450° F.
2. Wash and cut potatoes into uniform pieces, large bite sized. No need to peel them, in fact the skins roast up pleasantly crisp.
3. Place potatoes, salt and pepper, olive oil, herb of choice, and garlic into a large zip top bag and seal. Shake what your Mama gave you (and the bag, too) until potatoes are completely coated and looking divine.
4. Spread potatoes out in a even layer on a baking pan. Do NOT crowd them, they need room to get crispy and delicious! Roast for 30-40 minutes, or until potatoes are tender and browned. Serve immediately and soak up all the praise you'll get for making such an awesome side dish!
