Ingredients

Scale

Instructions

  1. 1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. 2. Wash and cut the potatoes into even-sized chunks (1-2 inches).
  3. 3. Boil the potato chunks in salted water for about 10 minutes until fork-tender but not mushy.
  4. 4. Drain the potatoes and shake them gently in the pot to roughen their edges.
  5. 5. Drizzle olive oil over the potatoes in the pot, then sprinkle with salt, pepper, and herbs. Toss until well-coated.
  6. 6. Spread the potatoes on a parchment-lined baking sheet and roast for 30-35 minutes, flipping halfway through for even crispiness.
