Roasted Red Potatoes
Description
Roasted Red Potatoes combine halved baby red potatoes coated in olive oil, salt, and pepper, then baked at 425°F until golden and tender. After roasting, they are tossed quickly with butter and minced fresh dill, which melts into the warm potatoes, imparting a bright aromatic herb flavor and silky texture. The high oven heat ensures a crisp exterior contrasts the soft interior.
This side dish complements many meals, pairing well with proteins or roasted vegetables. The fresh dill garnish boosts flavor and freshness.
Use parchment paper to promote even browning and easy cleanup. Serve the potatoes soon after roasting to enjoy their crispy edges and soft centers. Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to three days and reheated in a baking pan to restore crispness. Optional grated Parmesan or Italian herbs can be added for a flavor variation.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds red potatoes baby
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoon butter unsalted
- 2 tablespoons dill minced fresh
- salt coarse and freshly cracked, to taste
- black pepper coarse and freshly cracked, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°.
- Start by slicing the baby red potatoes in half width-wise.
- Add the potatoes to a large bowl and toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- Place the potatoes spread out on a sheet tray lined with parchment paper and bake at 425° for 22 to 25 minutes or until lightly browned and cooked.
- Transfer the potatoes to a separate large bowl and toss with butter and fresh dill.
- Serve with additional chopped fresh dill as an optional garnish.
Notes
- Roasting at 425°F yields crisp exterior and soft interior; avoid lower temperatures for best texture.
- Use parchment paper for even browning and easier cleanup.
- Toss potatoes with butter and dill immediately after roasting to enhance flavor and melt butter evenly.
- Serve shortly after roasting to maintain crisp edges; leftovers refrigerate well for up to 3 days.
- Reheat in oven at 350°F for 8-10 minutes to restore crispness.
- Optional: Add freshly grated Parmesan or switch dill for Italian seasoning for variety.
