Roasted Red Potatoes
2 pounds (about 4 medium) red potatoes, scrubbed
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary (optional)
1) Set rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with tin foil and spray with cooking spray.
2) Cut potatoes in half lengthwise. Cut each half in lengthwise again.
Cut each quarter into slices, from 1/2-inch to 3/4-inch in width.
3) In a medium bowl, combine potatoes, olive oil, salt, pepper, and
rosemary if using. Stir thoroughly to combine. Pour on to baking sheet
in a single layer, making sure to spread potatoes out so they roast and
don’t steam.
4) Cook 20 minutes. Stir potatoes. Cook an additional 15-20 minutes, until sides are browned. Remove and serve hot.
