Marinate the Potatoes

- Arrange the marinated potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, then flip the potatoes and bake for another 5-7 minutes, or until they are golden brown and tender.

Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Roasted Potatoes
- For extra crispy potatoes, toss them with a little extra olive oil after the initial bake and broil for the last 2-3 minutes.
- Don't overcrowd the baking sheet; ensure the potatoes are in a single layer for even roasting. Use two baking sheets if necessary.
- Feel free to experiment with other spices! Paprika, cumin, or rosemary would all be delicious additions.
- To make ahead, prepare the marinated potatoes and refrigerate them overnight. Add an extra 5-10 minutes to the baking time.
