These Crispy Breakfast Potatoes are golden, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned, making a delicious side dish for any morning meal. Using simple ingredients and an easy roasting method, the potatoes come out crispy on the outside and tender inside, enhanced by a blend of garlic, onion powder, and paprika. Garnished with fresh parsley or green onions, they add both color and a fresh touch to your breakfast plate.

Ingredients

Scale

Potatoes

  • 2 large Russet or Yukon Gold potatoes (cut into small cubes)

Seasonings and Oils

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Optional Garnish

  • Fresh parsley or chopped green onions (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup and to prevent sticking.
  2. Prepare the potatoes: Wash and optionally peel the potatoes, then cut them into small, even-sized cubes to ensure they cook uniformly.
  3. Soak the potatoes: Place the cut potatoes in cold water for 20–30 minutes to remove excess starch, which helps make them extra crispy when roasted.
  4. Dry and season: Drain the potatoes thoroughly and dry them completely with a clean kitchen towel. Toss them in olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  5. Arrange on baking sheet: Spread the seasoned potatoes out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded to allow proper air circulation and crisping.
  6. Roast the potatoes: Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast the potatoes for 25–35 minutes, flipping them halfway through to promote even browning and a crispy texture.
  7. Garnish and serve: Once golden and crispy, remove the potatoes from the oven. Sprinkle with fresh parsley or chopped green onions if desired, and serve hot for a perfect breakfast side or snack.

Notes

  • Soaking the potatoes is key to a crispy texture as it removes excess starch.
  • Make sure to dry the potatoes thoroughly after soaking to avoid sogginess during roasting.
  • Use a high oven temperature like 425°F for optimal crispiness.
  • Flip the potatoes halfway during cooking to ensure even roasting on all sides.
  • You can customize the seasoning with other herbs or spices like rosemary or chili powder for varied flavor.
  • Use parchment paper or a non-stick baking mat for easy cleanup and to prevent sticking.
