Here’s a simple and delicious Air Fryer Roasted Potato recipe that you can make in about 30 minutes!
Ingredients:
- 1 lb (about 4-5 medium) potatoes (Yukon Gold, Russet, or baby potatoes work great)
- 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme or rosemary (optional)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley or chives for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Prep the Potatoes:
- Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt.
- For medium-sized potatoes, cut them into bite-sized chunks (about 1-1.5 inches). If using baby potatoes, you can halve or quarter them, depending on size.
- Season the Potatoes:
- In a large bowl, toss the potato pieces with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, thyme (or rosemary), salt, and pepper. Make sure the potatoes are evenly coated with the oil and seasoning.
- Preheat the Air Fryer:
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3-5 minutes.
- Air Fry the Potatoes:
- Place the seasoned potatoes into the air fryer basket in a single layer. Avoid overcrowding to ensure even cooking.
- Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 18-22 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even crisping. The potatoes should be golden brown and crispy on the outside, and tender on the inside.
- Check for Doneness:
- Check the potatoes with a fork or skewer to ensure they are cooked through. If they need a bit more time, cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, checking every couple of minutes.
- Serve:
- Once the potatoes are crispy and golden, remove them from the air fryer.
- Garnish with fresh parsley or chives if desired, and serve immediately!
Tips:
- For Extra Crispiness: If you want extra crispy potatoes, you can toss them in a little cornstarch before air frying.
- Vary the Seasonings: Feel free to mix up the seasoning blend based on your preferences—add chili powder for a little heat, or Parmesan cheese for a cheesy twist!
- Make It a Meal: You can serve these roasted potatoes as a side dish or toss them in a salad for added texture.
Enjoy your air fryer roasted potatoes! They’re perfect for a quick and easy side dish or snack.
