Equipment

  • 1 rimmed baking sheet
  • 1 parchment paper sheet
  • 2 quart pot

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound Baby potatoes halved, or regular-sized gold Yukon potatoes, chopped into 2-inch cubes.
  • 1 tablespoon Chicken stock base better than bouillon or bouillon cubes
  • 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher salt or sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon Chopped parsley for garnish optional
  • 1/2 teaspoon Flake salt or sea salt to finish optional

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat oven to 400°F
  • Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Boil 2 quarts (8 cups) of water and add a large pinch of salt.
  • Once the water is boiling, add the soup base or boullion cubes.
  • If you are using chicken stock, omit soup base or boullion cubes.
  • Add the halved or cubed potatoes.
  • Par-cook for 10 minutes.
  • Drain the potatoes into a colander.
  • Place the potatoes onto a kitchen towel and dry any excess liquid.
  • Now add the potatoes to the parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet.
  • Drizzle the olive oil, kosher salt and toss. Ensure that the potatoes are spread evenly onto the baking sheet.
  • Bake for 30 minutes, flipping potatoes midway through.
  • Potatoes should have crispy edges, be full of flavor, tender, and fluffy on the inside.
  • Garnish with chopped parsley, flaky or sea salt.

Notes

Tried and true tips

This is an easy recipe, and don't skip out on the extra flavoring of the stock base or bouillon. This creates depth in the flavor of the potatoes.
If you don't have stock base or bouillon, use a good, packaged chicken stock to par-cook the potatoes in.
Use parchment paper sheets on the rimmed baking sheet. Parchment paper does wonders for crisping potatoes. ( I love using it for crispy chicken wings!)
Use lemon pepper or another delicious seasoning instead of salt or with it before roasting.
