These super-crispy garlic-rosemary roasted potatoes get their crackly outside by precooking the potatoes in water with a little baking soda. The baking soda helps break down the skin, allowing the flavors of garlic and rosemary to set in and crisp up when roasted in a hot oven. Serve these alongside roasted chicken, turkey or steak.

Ingredients

8 cups water
2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, scrubbed and cut into 2-inch pieces
¼ teaspoon baking soda
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
1 teaspoon garlic powder
¾ teaspoon salt

Directions

Position rack in center of oven; preheat to 425°F. Add water to a large pot; bring to a boil over high heat. Add potatoes and baking soda; return to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-high and simmer until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 15 minutes. Drain the potatoes and carefully shake off excess water.
Combine oil, rosemary, garlic powder and salt in a large bowl. Add the potatoes and toss to combine (the outer layer of the potatoes will start to break down a bit, which is good). Spread the potatoes in an even layer on a large rimmed baking sheet. Roast, stirring once halfway, until golden brown and crispy, about 30 minutes.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
