Instructions
- Prepare Potatoes - Chop the potatoes into bite-sized, ½” to ¾” pieces. Try your best to cut them to the same thickness. This way they’ll roast up evenly. Once you’ve cut up your potatoes, place the pieces in a large bowl. Toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- Arrange – Spread the chopped potatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spread them in a single layer, flat-side down. Dot the top with butter.
- Roast the Potatoes – Bake at 425ºF for about 25-30 minutes, until the bottoms are golden. Flip and bake for another 15-20 minutes, until the potatoes are crisp and fork-tender.
- Serve – Sprinkle with kosher salt to taste, garnish with parsley, and serve right away or keep warm in the oven until ready to serve.
