Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 pounds red potatoes, washed and cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary or thyme (optional)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
- Preheat the air fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 3-5 minutes.
- Season the potatoes: In a large bowl, toss the red potato cubes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, rosemary (if using), salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Air-fry the potatoes: Arrange the potatoes in a single layer in the air fryer basket, being careful not to overcrowd them. Cook for 15-18 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking, until the potatoes are crispy and golden brown on the outside.
