Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450°F.
- Coat a jelly roll pan with oil.
- Add the quartered potatoes, garlic slices, rosemary, salt, and pepper to the pan.
- Toss to coat all the potatoes evenly.
- Bake for 30 minutes or until potatoes are tender, stirring once halfway through cooking.
Tips & Substitutions
For extra flavor, consider adding a splash of lemon juice or a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese before serving. If you don't have rosemary, thyme or oregano can be great substitutes. Ensure the potatoes are cut evenly for uniform cooking, and don't overcrowd the pan to allow for proper roasting. You can also add some sliced bell peppers or onions for added color and taste.
Serving Suggestions
These roasted potatoes make a fantastic side dish for grilled meats or fish, particularly when paired with a light salad or Nicoise Green Beans. Consider serving them alongside marinated garden tomatoes for a fresh contrast. They also work well as a hearty addition to any Mediterranean recipes, providing a satisfying element to your meal.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover roasted potatoes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. To reheat, spread them out on a baking sheet and warm in a preheated oven at 375°F for about 10-15 minutes, which helps them regain their crispiness. Avoid microwaving as it can make them soggy.
