Baked home fries are a delicious and easy side dish to make for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are a great way to use up potatoes you may have in the pantry, or you can buy a bag of potatoes specifically for this dish. The flavors are simple and classic, and you can adjust the seasonings to your liking. The result is a crispy, golden brown side dish that everyone will love.
Ingredients
For this recipe, you will need the following ingredients:
- 4 large potatoes, peeled and diced into cubes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Place the diced potatoes on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle the potatoes with the garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, oregano, parsley, and salt and pepper. Gently toss the potatoes with your hands to evenly coat with the seasonings.
