Ingredients
- 2 pounds baby gold potatoes – halved
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1.5 teaspoons kosher salt
- 5 jarred piquillo peppers – patted dry, roughly chopped
- 2 tablespoons minced chives – optional
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425 F. Place the potatoes, olive oil, paprika, garlic and salt in a large mixing bowl. Toss to combine. Transfer the potatoes to a large parchment-lined baking tray.
- Make sure the potatoes are not too crowded on the baking tray and there is plenty of space in between each one. If necessary use two sheet trays. Bake the potatoes for 20 minutes undisturbed then use a spatula to flip and release any stuck potatoes, shake the pan and turn potatoes to ensure even browning on all sides. Add the chopped piquillo peppers then continue roasting until the potatoes are deeply golden brown and crisp all over, turning and shaking them a few times during cooking, about 15-20 more minutes.
- As soon as the potatoes come out of the oven toss with minced chives. Serve right away.
