- ¼ cup olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
Garnish
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prepare for roasting.
- Season Potatoes: In a mixing bowl, combine the halved baby potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Toss thoroughly until the potatoes are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
- Arrange Potatoes: Spread the seasoned potatoes on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer to ensure even roasting.

- For extra crispiness, avoid overcrowding the baking sheet; use two sheets if necessary.
- Feel free to substitute Italian seasoning with fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme for a different flavor profile.
- Make sure to halve potatoes evenly for uniform cooking.
- This recipe is easily doubled or halved based on your serving needs.
