Roasted Italian potatoes are a classic side dish that is simple to make and bursting with flavor. They are made by cutting small potatoes into cubes, coating them in olive oil and Italian herbs, and then roasting them in the oven until they are golden brown and crispy. The potatoes are then served warm, making them a great accompaniment to any Italian meal. The combination of the roasted potato cubes, the herbs, and the olive oil create a delicious and savory flavor that will make your mouth water. The potatoes also have a wonderfully creamy texture that makes them the perfect accompaniment to any main course. Whether you are serving a classic Italian dinner or just want a tasty side dish, roasted Italian potatoes are the perfect choice.
Ingredients
6 Yukon gold potatoes, cut into 3/4 inch cubes
5 cloves of minced garlic
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tsp thyme
kosher salt and black pepper
Method
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
In a bowl, toss the potatoes with the olive oil, garlic, and thyme. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Spread potatoes on a baking sheet and roast for 50-60 minutes, tossing them halfway through, until crisp and golden.
Remove from oven, transfer to bowl and serve.
Note: you may have excess olive oil in the pan. I like to drizzle it on steak if that is what we are having. If you find it is too much oil, simply decrease the amount.
