Ingredients

  • 2 pounds potatoes scrubbed and cut into 2-inch cubes

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the scrubbed and cubed potatoes.
  • Drizzle the olive oil over the potatoes, then sprinkle with sea salt, ground black pepper, lemon zest, and minced garlic. Toss everything together until the potatoes are evenly coated.
  • Pour the lemon juice over the seasoned potatoes. Toss again to ensure all the potatoes are well coated. Tuck the rosemary sprigs among the potatoes.
