Ingredients
  

1.5 lbs baby potatoes (halved)

4 cloves garlic (minced)

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon dried rosemary

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon coarse sea salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Fresh parsley (for garnish, chopped)

Optional: 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Prepare the Potatoes: In a large mixing bowl, add the halved baby potatoes. This will ensure that they roast evenly.

      Season the Potatoes: Add the minced garlic, olive oil, dried rosemary, dried thyme, coarse sea salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Toss everything together until the potatoes are well-coated with the oil and seasonings.

        Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Ensure they are cut side down for maximum crispiness.

          Roast: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and tender. Toss them halfway through cooking time for even roasting.

            Add Finishing Touches: If desired, sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the potatoes during the last 5 minutes of roasting for an added cheesy flavor.

              Garnish and Serve: Remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool slightly. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and flavor. Serve warm.
