Oven Browned Potatoes

Hi. It's Lois in the kitchen with an idea for supper. Oven Browned Potatoes, one of my favorite ways to make potatoes, is so simple. Crunchy on the outside; soft on the inside. A bit like French fries, but with more softness on the inside. And certainly healthier for you than French fries. Another Easy Peasy recipe that allows you to pop it in the oven and relax until your meal is ready. Everyone will love them.

Food Pairings

Serve them with Mom's Meatloaf, Easy Lemon Chicken, and a salad, such as Fennel Orange Cucumber Salad

What you Need

All you really need is a knife (affiliate link), a cutting board, and a baking pan. I use pyrex dishes (affiliate link). I'm one of those cooks who always wears an apron (affiliate). I'm a messy gal. These are kinda fun, doncha think?

Step By Step

Spread the oil and spices over the baking pan. Cut the potatoes in half.

Ingredients

▢ 8 Small Potatoes red or white, quartered or halved, depending on size
▢ 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
▢ 1 teaspoon Seasoning Salt
▢ ½ teaspoon Thyme
▢ ¼ teaspoon Pepper

Instructions

Option 1

Peeling the potatoes is not required, but you can do it if you like. Little red potatoes work perfectly simply washed and cut in half.
Toss the potatoes in the olive oil and spices OR spread the oil and spices evenly over a baking dish.
Place the potatoes, cut side down, in a single layer in a glass baking dish.
Bake at 350F degrees for about 45 minutes until a fork goes in easily and the potatoes are browned.

Option 2: For Faster Cooking

Another way to do it is to cut the potatoes in half and parboil them for 8-10 minutes in water, or microwave them for 3 minutes.
Drain them and then toss them in a bowl with the oil and spices.
Place them cut-side down on a cooking sheet.
Bake them for 30 minutes at 375F degrees until tender and browned.
