A delightful twist on classic roasted potatoes, infused with aromatic herbs and garlic for a flavorful side dish.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and a crispy texture.
Wash the potatoes thoroughly and cut them into bite-sized pieces if necessary.
Uniformly sized pieces cook more evenly.
Separate the garlic cloves from the heads but leave the skins on.
Leaving the skins on prevents the garlic from burning.
In a mixing bowl, combine the potatoes, garlic, olive oil, salt, pepper, and thyme. Toss until everything is evenly coated.
Use your hands to ensure all pieces are well coated.
Spread the mixture evenly on a foil-lined baking sheet.
Avoid overcrowding to ensure crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the potatoes are golden and tender.
Stirring halfway ensures even browning.
Remove from the oven, adjust seasoning if needed, and serve warm.
Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
