Oven Roasted Red Potatoes

This simple side dish recipe can easily be coordinated to bake along with your entree. The last time I made these, I adjusted the cooking times for the potatoes so I could bake them at the same time as the Baked Chicken I was planning to serve.

These potato wedges are a fantastic side dish for just about any occasion. We’ve enjoyed them served alongside Balsamic Glazed Meatloaf and a mixed greens salad, with out-of-this-world tasty Filthy Burgers, and with these Buttered Steak Bites with Mushrooms.

One of the beauties of roasted potatoes is that they are simple enough to go with so many different kinds of main dishes yet still completely delicious in its own right. And you must try them dipped in Po’dunk Sauce, Ranch Dip, or Homemade Ketchup, too!

Making impressive roasted potatoes that are crispy on the outside yet fluffy and tender on the inside takes no special skills or talent in the kitchen. Even brand new home cooks can knock this recipe out of the ballpark.

Baked Red Potatoes

Perfect red potatoes start by coating slices of red potatoes in olive oil and seasoning them with your preferred spice blend. I tend to reach for kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper, garlic powder, and chili powder. (I use New Mexico style chili powder but feel free to use whatever brand or style you prefer!)

What I really love about this recipe is that it’s completely adaptable. Don’t love chili powder? Feel free to omit it! You can experiment with other spices and dried herbs you enjoy.

Roast for 40 minutes, until tender and lightly browned on the edges. Remove from the oven and stir or flip the potatoes over with a thin spatula.

Roast an additional 10-20 minutes until deep golden brown. Serve alone or with the dipping sauces of your choice.

Red Potato Recipes

Do you cook with red potatoes often? I find they’re often overlooked in favor of mainstay potatoes like Russets and fancier spuds like sweet potatoes but these spuds deserve some love.

With high moisture and lower starch content than its Russet and Yukon gold cousins, red potatoes crisp nicely when baked and broiled. They also hold together quite well when cooked and have a delightfully creamy texture.

This makes them an excellent choice for all kinds of recipes including roasted potatoes, mashed potatoes, soups, and potato salads. Once you try these potatoes be sure to give some of my other favorite baked red potatoes recipes a try.
