Crispy Roasted Potatoes
This recipe will get a lot of use! You can serve it with everything from meatloaf to prime rib. Heck, these little nuggets of goodness are even great for breakfast! I’ve even used cold leftovers on salads. So good!
Now that grilling season is upon us; I love simple side dishes to go with grilled steak, chops, tenderloins, etc. This recipe is the perfect accompaniment with its ease to prepare and awesome flavor.
On occasion, I love serving these potatoes for holidays in place of traditional mashed potatoes. It’s a great way to change up the menu a little bit while keeping everything delicious!
How to store leftovers
Allow the potatoes to cool completely before transferring them to an airtight container or zip-top bag. Refrigerate for up to 3-5 days.
How to reheat leftovers
You can eat them cold, but if you prefer to warm them up, here is my advise:
OVEN: Spread the potatoes on a baking sheet and cover it with aluminum foil. Bake in a 400°F oven for 10-15 minutes or until heated through.
MICROWAVE: Place the potatoes in or on a microwave-safe dish. Cover with a damp paper towel. Microwave on 30% power for 2 to 2-1/2 minutes or until heated through.
AIR FRYER: Depending on your air fryer, set your temperature between 350°F to 400°F. Place your potatoes in the air fryer and cook 3-4 minutes or until your potatoes are as crisp as you want them and they are heated through.
Can you freeze roasted potatoes
Yes! Once cooled, place your potatoes in an airtight freezer-safe container or zip-top bag. Freeze for up to 4-6 months. To use, allow the potatoes to thaw overnight in the fridge and reheat as directed above.

Recipe Tips
- Try this recipe with your favorite herb combinations.
- Par-boiling potatoes allow the outside to get soft enough to help create the best surface for crisping. Plus, it ensures the inside is nice and fluffy!
- Don’t use too much oil, or your potatoes will be greasy.
- If serving this for a holiday dinner or a crowd, account for 1/3 to 1/2 pound of potatoes per person, depending on what else you’re serving.
