- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Cooking Ingredients:
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- Warm the oven to 425F and prepare a parchment-lined baking sheet to ensure even cooking and easy cleanup.
- Combine diced potatoes and sliced onions in a spacious mixing bowl, creating a flavorful base for roasting.
- Drizzle olive oil over the vegetables, then generously sprinkle garlic powder, paprika, salt, pepper, and thyme to enhance their natural flavors.

- Continue baking for an additional 15-18 minutes until the potatoes develop a crisp exterior and tender interior.
- Remove from the oven and let rest for 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to settle and the vegetables to cool slightly.
- Transfer to a serving platter and enjoy the herb-infused, crispy oven-roasted potatoes and onions while they’re hot.
Notes
- Slice potatoes and onions uniformly to ensure even cooking and consistent crispiness.
- For extra crunch, pat potatoes dry with paper towels before seasoning to remove excess moisture.
- Experiment with alternative herbs like rosemary or oregano to customize flavor profile.
- Use sweet potatoes or mixed root vegetables for a nutritious and colorful variation that suits different dietary preferences.
