Roasted Rosemary and Garlic Potatoes

If you’re looking for crispy oven roasted potatoes with garlic and rosemary, this is one of the easiest and most reliable ways to get that golden outside and fluffy center every time.

Why I Love These Roasted Potatoes

To me, nothing is as delicious and comforting as freshly roasted potatoes. The perfect roasted potatoes make a fantastic canvas for all sorts of flavors and seasonings. From my Irresistible Air-Fried Garlic Herb Roasted Potatoes to my Air-Fried Ranch Potatoes, I’m always looking for new ways to enjoy this classic dish.

This time, I’m covering these spuds with fragrant rosemary and savory garlic flavor. I used garlic powder and dried rosemary to keep things simple, and… a little tip: you really don’t need the fresh versions for this dish!

To make things even more convenient, I season the potatoes in a zip-top bag. No bowls, no extra dishes to clean. We’re keeping things easy and tasty with these roasted rosemary garlic potatoes!

Ingredients

• Petite potatoes: Baby Yukon Gold potatoes or red potatoes work great! You want them petite so they crisp up well.
• Olive oil: Extra virgin olive oil creates nice and crispy roasted potatoes.
• Garlic powder: It’s’s basic ingredients like garlic powder that really elevate these potatoes.
• Dried rosemary: This is the spice that makes this recipe truly special. It brings a fragrant aroma and bold flavor to these potatoes.
• Salt & pepper: Key for enhancing that delicious garlic rosemary flavor.
• Fresh chopped parsley (optional): I like to add fresh herbs like parsley to this garlic rosemary roasted potatoes recipe for a pop of color and freshness.

Preparation

To start, preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.

Next, prep the potatoes by washing them (if needed) and cutting them in half. If any are larger, cut them into quarters.

Season in a large bowl or zip-top bag by tossing the potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, rosemary, salt, and pepper until well coated.

Cooking

Now it’s time to pop these babies in the oven! Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until golden brown and fork-tender.

Serving

When ready to serve, sprinkle on the fresh parsley if you’ve got it. Enjoy!

Storage & Reheating

Oh, do I love having leftover potatoes! You can store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. When ready to eat, reheat in the oven at 350°F for about 10-15 minutes or until warmed through.
