Ingredients:

  • 1½ lb baby potatoes, halved or quartered into equal sizes
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary, crushed
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions:

  1. Wash the baby potatoes and pat them completely dry with a paper towel. Cut them into uniform pieces to ensure they cook evenly.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp crushed dried rosemary, 1 tsp dried oregano, and 1/2 tsp smoked paprika until every surface is evenly coated.
  3. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 5 minutes.
  4. Arrange the potatoes in the air fryer basket in a single layer; cook in batches if they don't fit in one layer to maintain crispness.
  5. Air fry for 15-18 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the edges are mahogany-colored and the skins are crisp.
  6. During the last 3-4 minutes of cooking, toss in the 3 cloves of minced fresh garlic to ensure it becomes fragrant without burning.
  7. Remove the potatoes from the air fryer and immediately garnish with 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley.
