Tips and Tricks
Potato Preparation
For extra crispy potatoes, soak the peeled and sliced potatoes in cold water for at least 30 minutes before baking. This removes excess starch and helps achieve a crispier texture.
Seasoning
Add a pinch of smoked paprika or cayenne pepper along with the salt and pepper for a bit of extra flavor and a slight kick.
Baking
Make sure the potato slices are evenly spread out on the baking sheets without overlapping. This ensures they cook evenly and get crispy on all sides.
Flipping Technique
Use a spatula to carefully flip the potatoes halfway through baking. This helps keep them intact and ensures even browning on both sides.
Serving
Serve the potatoes with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice just before serving to enhance the flavors and add a refreshing touch. They also pair well with a side of garlic aioli or your favorite dipping sauce.

Weight Watchers Herb Roasted Potatoes
Equipment
Ingredients
- 3 large russet potatoes
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- kosher salt to taste
- fresh ground black pepper to taste
- 1½ tablespoon fresh flat-leaf parsley minced
- 1½ teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
Instructions
- Heat your oven to 425°F. Make sure the oven racks are in the top half.
- Take two baking sheets and line them with parchment paper. If you don't have parchment paper, just spray them with cooking spray.
- Peel the potatoes and cut them into ⅓-inch-thick slices. Then, place these slices on your baking sheets.
- Drizzle oil over the potato slices. Use your hands to make sure both sides of each slice get some oil. Sprinkle them with salt and pepper to your liking.
- Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the sheets. Bake them for about 25 minutes, or until the bottom side is brown.
- After 25 minutes, flip the potatoes over. You can also switch the positions of the baking sheets in the oven. Bake for another 25-30 minutes until the other side is brown too. Feel free to add more salt and pepper on this side if you want.
- While the potatoes are baking, grab a large bowl. In it, mix together parsley, lemon zest, and garlic.
- Once the potatoes are done and out of the oven, add them to the bowl with the parsley mix. Gently toss everything together.
