Ingredients
- 16 ounces baby potatoes (gold or red, about 12 - 16 depending on the size)
- kosher salt
- 3/4 teaspoon sweet paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
- chopped parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
- Place the potatoes in a medium pot and cover with cold water, add 1 teaspoon kosher salt. Bring to a boil and cook until a knife easily pierces to the center of each potato, about 18 - 20 minutes. Remove from water and dry, place on a clean work surface and gently press using the bottom of a glass to smash the potato.
- Preheat the oven to 425F. Line a sheet pan with foil, if.
- In a small bowl combine paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt, black pepper and garlic powder. Place potatoes in a single layer on the prepared sheet pan. Lightly brush potatoes with oil and sprinkle both sides of each with spice mix.
- Bake 20 minutes, turning halfway until crisp and golden. Garnish with parsley.
