Roasted Fingerling Potatoes

The other weekend I made these roasted fingerling potatoes with my skirt steak and it was completely delicious and of course super easy! Fingerling potatoes are great for roasting and making smashed (not mashed potatoes) since they are a little firmer.

Ingredients:

  1. 8-10 fingerling potatoes halved
  2. Thyme
  3. Rosemary
  4. Minced garlic
  5. Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  6. Salt and Pepper

Directions

Preheat the oven to 500 degrees.

Take the potatoes and slice down the middle and drop in a bowl. In the bowl coat potatoes with EVOO, salt and pepper. Then sprinkle dried thyme and rosemary (best if fresh) and the minced garlic and lightly toss. Make sure that all the herbs are evenly spread on each potato.

Bake in the oven for 20 minutes. After 10-12 minutes shake the tray to make sure that the potatoes aren't sticking and cooking evenly.

There you go! Simple, easy and utterly delicious. Sometimes I find it hard to believe that something so easy can be so good, but alas its true. Simplicity = deliciousiness.

Rosemary Roasted Potatoes Recipe

So this is an easy and delicious staple in my kitchen. I took some pictures which I will have to post later! Things have been so hectic lately, but I am getting back into the grove of things and more tasty things to come your way dear foodies.

Ingredients:
  • 2 red skin potatoes
  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO)
  • Crushed Rosemary
  • Salt
  • Pepper

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Spray a cooking sheet with a non-stick spray.

Cut and cube the potatoes so they are about a ¼ of inch thick (honestly, however you like your potatoes is how you can cut them). Drizzle with some EVOO and heavily salt and pepper. Then light toss with some crushed rosemary.

Put in the oven for about 20-25 minutes, then check for tenderness and toss around (don’t want one side to be browner than the other). If the potatoes are not done increase the heat to 450 and leave them in for 5-7 more minutes.


This is a great, easy, and semi-healthy side dish that will complete any meal!
