Food Friday--Rosemary Roasted Potatoes

So, it seems that I am feeling the need to post recipes on Fridays.  I will be posting recipes that we think are good, and I hope you like them as much as we do.  Of course everyone has different tastes, budgets and dietary requirements, so your mileage may vary.

Rosemary Roasted Potatoes

What you need:

1 1/2 pounds small red potatoes, quartered
2 Tbsp olive oil
2 tsp paprika
1 1/2 tsp crushed rosemary leaves
1 tsp salt (optional, but the potatoes do taste better with a little salt)
1 tsp minced garlic (or to taste.  We like garlic, so I use a lot more.)
1/2 tsp ground black pepper


What you do:
Preheat the oven to 425 and line a baking sheet with foil.

In a large bowl, mix together the olive oil, paprika, rosemary,
garlic, black pepper, and salt, stirring well.

Add the quartered potatoes, tossing to coat well, then let sit in the spice mixture for about 10 minutes.

Arrange the potatoes in a single layer on the foil lined baking sheet and place in the oven.  Roast approximately 30 minutes or until tender, then remove from the oven and enjoy.


Please Note:  The foil on the baking sheet is for ease of clean-up.  If you don't have foil, or don't want to use it for roasting potatoes, that's cool, just make sure that you spray your baking sheet with non-stick spray, or wipe it with a small amount of vegetable oil to keep the potatoes from sticking.
