Rosemary Roasted Potatoes
1 – 2 lbs. Potatoes
1 – 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
1 tablespoon Fresh Rosemary or about 1 1/2 teaspoons dried
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Rinse off potatoes and peel if desired. For Fingerling potatoes you usually need to just cut them in half. If they are a little larger you may want to quarter them. I also like using Yukon Gold and Red potatoes when making this. Just cut them into bite-size pieces.
Pile the cut-up potatoes onto a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 – 2 tablespoons of Olive Oil. Sprinkle with a little salt, and pepper to taste. Slightly chop about 1 tablespoon of fresh rosemary (or you can use dried, about 1 – 1 1/2 teaspoons) and sprinkle over the top.
Using your hands, lightly toss everything together, then spread out the potatoes in a single layer, trying not to crowd the potatoes.
Bake in a 400-degree oven for about 30 – 40 minutes. Use a spatula to scrape up the potatoes and stir around halfway through cooking time. You want the potatoes fork tender and nice and golden brown.
