Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lbs Fingerling Potatoes washed and dried thoroughly
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil extra virgin
  • 3 cloves Garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp Fresh Rosemary finely chopped
  • 1 tsp Fresh Thyme leaves only
  • 1 tsp Coarse Sea Salt or to taste
  • 1/2 tsp Black Pepper freshly ground

Equipment

  • 1 Baking sheet Large and rimmed
  • 1 Large Bowl

Instructions
 

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper if desired for easy cleanup.
  2. Wash and thoroughly dry the fingerling potatoes. Slice them in half lengthwise. This creates more surface area for crisping.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the halved potatoes, olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme, sea salt, and black pepper. Toss well until the potatoes are evenly coated.
  4. Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single, even layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure the potatoes are not overcrowded to promote roasting instead of steaming.
  5. Roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until they are golden brown, crispy, and tender on the inside.
  6. Serve immediately, garnished with a little extra fresh herbs if desired.

Notes

For Extra Crispy Potatoes: Ensure your potatoes are completely dry before tossing with oil.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer.
