Roasted Spicy Potatoes

Originally published on January 22, 2015

Can you believe that to make roasted potatoes I used to just toss some potatoes with olive oil, salt and pepper? Yep, before I knew about boiling potatoes and “chuffing” them as you do in Jamie Oliver’s Roasted Potatoes, or even boiling them in the oven (yes, the oven) and still calling them roasted potatoes, this is one dish that used to always be a guaranteed bore on a plate. Now though, I know all about different ways to make my roasties, and it just so happens that sprinkling steak spice on them is one of the most delicious.

Ingredients:

3 pounds new potatoes, scrubbed and cut in half 
1 tablespoon, plus 1 teaspoon Montreal Steak Spice 
2 tablespoons olive oil

Directions:

1.) Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.

2.) Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and toss to coat potatoes evenly with the oil and spice. Spread them out evenly in a large casserole dish or baking sheet.

3.) Place potatoes in the preheated oven and bake for 35 – 45 minutes, until potatoes are crispy and golden brown.

4.) Serve and enjoy!
