Ingredients
Before you start cooking, gather the following ingredients:
– 4 large potatoes, peeled and diced
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
– Optional: chopped green onions, chives, or parsley for garnish
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced potatoes, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss the potatoes until they are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
3. Spread the seasoned potatoes out on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Make sure the potatoes are not overlapping to ensure even cooking.
4. Bake the seasoned potatoes in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
5. Once the potatoes are done, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Optional: sprinkle with chopped green onions, chives, or parsley for added flavor and color.
6. Serve the seasoned breakfast potatoes hot as a side dish or as a main course. They pair perfectly with eggs, bacon, or any other breakfast favorites.
Expert Tips
– For extra crispy potatoes, you can preheat the oven to a higher temperature, around 425°F (220°C), and bake them for a shorter time.
– If you prefer a more rustic look, leave the skin on the potatoes and cut them into wedges instead of dicing them.
– Feel free to experiment with different seasonings. Try adding Italian seasoning, cumin, or a mix of herbs and spices to find your perfect combination.
– These seasoned breakfast potatoes can also be made on the stove. Simply cook them in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and crispy.
