Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds baby potatoes halved
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary or 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 lemon zested and juiced
  • 1 tablespoon capers rinsed and drained
  • Fresh parsley chopped (for garnish)

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the halved baby potatoes, olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and rosemary. Toss until the potatoes are evenly coated.
  3. Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, cut side down. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through for even cooking.
  4. While the potatoes are roasting, mix the lemon zest, lemon juice, and capers in a small bowl. Set aside.
  5. Once the potatoes are crispy and tender, remove them from the oven and drizzle the lemon-caper mixture over the top. Toss gently to combine.
  6. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, soak the potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before roasting, then dry thoroughly.
  • Add other herbs like thyme or oregano for a different flavor profile.
  • You can also include diced onions or bell peppers on the baking sheet for added color and taste.
