The ultimate side dish you’ll make again and again

If you’ve been searching for a no-fuss potato recipe that always turns out amazing, these crispy roasted potatoes are it. My family is potato-obsessed, and this version has quickly become our most requested side dish! Soft on the inside, perfectly crisp on the outside, and seasoned with smoky spices that make them irresistible.

As a nutritionist, I also love that potatoes are a naturally nutrient-dense food. Keeping the skin on means you get more fiber, potassium, and antioxidants in every bite. That’s a win for both flavor and health!

Let’s get started!

How to make Easy Oven Roasted Potatoes:

All you need:

• Yukon gold potatoes
• Smoked paprika
• Cumin
• Garlic powder
• Sea salt
• Black pepper
• Avocado oil or olive oil

Directions:  

1. Dice the potatoes into small bite-sized pieces. Keep the skin on for extra nutrients, or peel if you prefer.

   

2. Mix together the spices with the oil. Pour over the potatoes and toss until well coated.

   

3. Spread onto a parchment-lined sheet pan. Roast at 450 degrees for about 35 minutes, stirring once halfway through.

That’s it!! Perfect crispy roasted potatoes every time!!!

Quick Tips for the Best Roasted Potatoes

• Line with parchment paper: Makes cleanup easy and prevents sticking.Serving:
• Keep the skin on: It adds nutrients and texture.
• Dice evenly: Cutting the potatoes into similar sizes helps them cook at the same rate.
• Roast hot: 450 degrees is the sweet spot for a crispy outside and soft inside.
• Stir halfway through: This ensures all sides get browned and crisp.

Serving Ideas

These potatoes go with just about everything, which is why I keep them on repeat! Some of our favorite main dishes to serve them with include Walnut Crusted Chicken Piccata, Sheet Pan Honey Mustard Chicken Thighs, and Chimichurri Steak and Pepper Skillet.

And don’t forget breakfast! Leftover roasted potatoes taste amazing with eggs the next morning.

Storage and reheating: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat quickly in a skillet for 5 minutes, or microwave for about 1 minute per serving.

These roasted potatoes are truly the side dish that goes with everything. Once you try them, they’ll become a regular on your table too!!

Ingredients

Cook ModePrevent your screen from going dark

Instructions 

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. If you have a convection roast setting, use that. If not, regular 450 degrees works! Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
• Dice up the potatoes into small pieces. You will want around 5-6 cups of diced potatoes. You can keep the skin on for added nutritional value. Place inside a large bowl.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the paprika, cumin, garlic powder, and sea salt. Now pour in the oil and mix. Place the mixture on top of the potatoes and toss!
• Pour on the prepared pan with parchment paper. Spread out the potatoes so there is an even layer. Transfer to the oven and roast for 30-35 minutes (this will depend on your oven and the setting). At the 17 minute mark, give it a quick stir. Remove from oven when they are crispy and browned.
