Ingredients for Breakfast Potatoes:
2 lbs yukon gold potatoes
1 tsp sea salt, or to taste
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 tsp paprika, or to taste
3 Tbsp extra light olive oil (or any high heat cooking oil)
1 Tbsp parsley, finely chopped, optional garnish
How to Make Breakfast Potatoes:
Prep: Preheat oven to 400˚F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet (11×17) see note above on silpat vs. parchment.
1. Rinse and peel potatoes. Dice them into 1/2″ thick cubes. I use the large blades on this food chopper (which is a huge time saver for these breakfast potatoes and many of our chopped salads). Note: these potatoes would work just fine un-peeled if you prefer to scrub potatoes and leave the skins on.
2. Place potatoes in a large bowl and toss with 3 Tbsp oil. Sprinkle with 1 tsp paprika, 1 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper and toss to combine and evenly coat potatoes.
3. Immediately transfer potatoes to lined baking sheet in a single layer and bake at 400˚F for 20 minutes or until cooked through. Stir potatoes quickly then set the oven to broil and bake an additional 3-4 minutes or until golden brown. Serve sprinkled with parsley if desired.

Instructions

Rinse and peel potatoes. Dice into ½" thick cubes (use a food chopper with the larger holes if you have one)

Immediately transfer potatoes to a lined baking sheet in a single layer and bake at 400˚F for 20 min or until cooked through. Stir potatoes quickly then set oven to broil and bake additional 2-4 min or until golden brown. Serve sprinkled with parsley if desired.
Notes
!Tips for Success with Breakfast Potatoes:
*A silicone liner is recommended and can withstand broiling at the end. You can use parchment if you don't broil the potatoes.
*Add salt just before putting the potatoes in the oven and DO NOT let them sit after salting.
*You can double the recipe for a large crowd, but use a big ¾ baking sheet.
*These potatoes would work just fine un-peeled if you prefer to scrub potatoes and leave the skins on.
