Crispy on the outside, tender on the inside — these breakfast potatoes are perfectly seasoned and make the ultimate side for eggs, bacon, or a weekend brunch.

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs (900 g) russet or Yukon gold potatoes, diced into 1/2-inch cubes
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Optional: chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Wash and dice potatoes into even-sized cubes. Pat dry with a kitchen towel to remove moisture.
  • In a large bowl, toss potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, oregano, salt, and pepper until well coated.
  • Spread potatoes out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve hot.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, soak diced potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before baking, then dry thoroughly.
  • Add chopped onions or bell peppers before roasting for extra flavor.
  • Can also be made in an air fryer at 400°F (200°C) for 15–18 minutes.
