Roasted Potatoes

Crispy, golden roasted potato cubes seasoned to perfection. This simple, budget-friendly side dish pairs beautifully with any main course and is always a crowd-pleaser!

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F.

  2. 2

    Peel and cube the russet potatoes into uniform, bite-sized pieces for even cooking.

  3. 3

    In a large plastic bag or mixing bowl, combine vegetable oil and Mrs. Dash seasoning.

  4. 4

    Add the potato cubes to the bag or bowl and shake/stir thoroughly to coat all pieces evenly with oil and seasoning.

  5. 5

    Pour the seasoned potatoes onto a large baking sheet, spreading them in a single layer with space between pieces for proper browning.

  6. 6

    Bake for 40-45 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even browning on all sides.

  7. 7

    Remove from oven when potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork and beautifully golden brown.

  8. 8

    Season with salt to taste and serve immediately while hot and crispy.

  9. 9

    **Pro Tips:** Don't overcrowd the pan - use two baking sheets if needed. The single layer is key for achieving that perfect crispy exterior!
