Ingredient notes
- Potatoes - I prefer using a combination of red and white baby potatoes. Russets and Yukon golds can also be used.
- Onions - Any variety works in this recipe - red, yellow, white.
- Sweet bell peppers - I used green peppers, but you can add a variety of colors with red, orange, or yellow peppers.
- Seasonings include dried thyme, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Dried herbs work best. Add your favorites or use what you have on hand, such as parsley, basil, rosemary, or marjoram.
Step-by-step instructions
Please see the recipe card for complete instructions and ingredient amounts.
- Cut the potatoes into 1-inch pieces. The smallest baby potatoes can be left whole. Cut the peppers and onions into 1-inch pieces. Add the veggies to the baking dish and toss together.
- Add the oil and seasonings. Toss to evenly coat the veggies.
- Bake at 400 degrees for 40-50 minutes (stirring after 20-30 minutes) until potatoes are fork-tender and golden brown.
Expert Tips
- Cut larger potatoes into uniform 1-inch pieces for even cooking.
- Cut the peppers and onions into larger pieces so they retain some texture and don't burn.
- Don't skimp on the oil noted in the recipe. The potatoes need moisture to roast beautifully, and the oil prevents them from sticking to the pan.
Serving ideas
- These potatoes are delicious with everything from breakfast to dinner.
- Serve with eggs and toast, pancakes or waffles, and mushroom brie quiche.
- For dinner, serve with Dutch oven sausage and peppers, flat-cut corned beef, roast beef, pork tenderloin with caramelized onions and apples, or chicken.
- Add leftover corned beef or ham to these potatoes for a delicious hash.
Recipe FAQs
