Breakfast Potatoes {Crispy Oven Baked}
These Breakfast Potatoes are oven-baked red potato cubes tossed in olive oil and spices, baked until tender, then broiled briefly to develop a golden crisp exterior. The combination of garlic, paprika, and onion powder seasons the potatoes lightly, producing a flavorful and crunchy side dish that pairs well with breakfast or brunch meals.
