Oven Roasted Potatoes

These potatoes are insanely simple to prepare and insanely delicious to eat!!

Line a baking sheet (with sides!!) with aluminum foil or just spray it with nonstick spray.  Heat the oven to 375º.

Melt 4 Tblsp. of butter - to the butter add 1/2 tsp. garlic powder, 1/4 tsp. seasoned salt, freshly ground black pepper, 1 Tblsp. dried parsley (or fresh) -   or just toss in whatever other seasonings you like (basil, oregano, chili powder - the possibilities are endless!). Pour the butter into the pan, distributing it evenly.

Take a 6-8 Yukon Gold or red potatoes, clean them, trim them and cut them in half. Set the potatoes onto the butter, cut side down.  With a pastry brush, brush some of the seasoned butter onto the tops of the potatoes.

Put the potatoes in the oven - bake for 30 minutes.  Kick the oven temperature up to 425º and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes (until the cut side is golden & sizzling). 

That's it! :)
