Garlic herb Roasted potatoes are a wonderful side dish for any dinner. They're simple to cook, have a creamy but crunchy texture, and are drenched in garlic flavor.

Indeed, mashed potatoes are a delicious way to consume potatoes. In my opinion, nothing beats freshly roasted potatoes right out of the oven. It's nearly like a batch of freshly baked fries - but better.

Thus, if you're searching for a quick side dish to go with your weekly meals, I recommend this garlic herb roasted potatoes. They're crispy on the surface, creamy on the inside, and flavorful with garlic.

WHICH POTATOES ARE BEST FOR ROASTING?

With so many potato varieties available, determining which one works best for specific recipes may be difficult. When it comes to roasting, though, you want potatoes that are somewhere between waxy and starchy. Put in some fresh potatoes or Yukon golds!

These potatoes have a slightly waxy skin that caramelizes well and a starchy core that is smooth and buttery.

I used new potatoes for this dish because they are essentially young, baby potatoes. They're usually white or red in hue, although either works perfectly.

HOW TO MAKE GARLIC HERB ROASTED POTATOES

To make this delicious side dish, just chop the potatoes, mix them with oil and spices, and bake until brown.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Place the potatoes in a mixing dish, and cut them in half (if big).
Toss in the olive oil, minced garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper until everything is completely covered.
Place the potatoes on a sheet pan in even layers.
Cook for 45-55 minutes, or until golden brown. Stir the potatoes halfway through to ensure that all sides are done.
