Ingredients
  

4 medium-sized russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes

3 tablespoons olive oil

Zest of 1 lemon

2 tablespoons lemon juice

1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped

1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

½ teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This high temperature will help achieve that perfect crispiness.

    Prepare the Potatoes: In a large bowl, combine the potato cubes with olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, rosemary, thyme, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss until the potatoes are well-coated.

      Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the seasoned potato cubes in a single layer on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Ensure there's enough space between the cubes for even cooking.

        Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping the cubes halfway through the cooking time. They should be golden brown and crispy on the outside.

          Garnish and Serve: Once cooked, remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Sprinkle fresh parsley on top for an added burst of color and flavor. Serve warm as a side dish or a snack.
