Irresistible Garlic Ranch Roasted Potatoes: A Flavor-Packed Side Dish


 

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare
    Heat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.

  2. Season the Potatoes
    Cut baby potatoes into halves (or quarters for larger ones). In a large bowl, toss them with olive oil, minced garlic, ranch seasoning, salt, and pepper until every piece is evenly coated.

  3. Roast to Perfection
    Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheet, ensuring they have space to crisp up. Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy on the edges.

  4. Finish and Serve
    Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness. Serve hot and watch them disappear in minutes.

Tips for the Best Results

  • Use baby potatoes for quicker cooking and creamier centers.

  • Don’t overcrowd the pan—giving the potatoes space helps them crisp rather than steam.

  • For extra indulgence, add grated Parmesan in the last 10 minutes of roasting.

  • Love spice? Toss in a pinch of cayenne or smoked paprika with the ranch seasoning.
