Ingredients
  

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

4 tablespoons unsalted butter

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried rosemary)

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

    Boil the Potatoes: Place the cubed potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until slightly tender but not fully cooked. Drain and let them steam dry for a few minutes.

      Prepare the Garlic Butter: In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic, rosemary, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.

        Combine Potatoes and Oil: In a large mixing bowl, combine the semi-cooked potatoes with olive oil, ensuring they are evenly coated.

          Add Garlic Butter: Pour the melted garlic butter mixture over the potatoes and gently toss until every cube is well-coated in the aromatic butter.

            Spread on Baking Sheet: Arrange the potato cubes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet to ensure they crisp up evenly. Leave some space between each cube for even cooking.

              Bake: Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, turning the potatoes halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside.

                Garnish and Serve: Once done, remove from the oven, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve hot as a delicious side or snack!
