How to make Easy Roasted Potatoes

First, peel, wash and chop potatoes into bite-sized pieces. Put the potatoes into a large pot of water and bring to a boil. Once water is boiling cook for about 10 minutes or until potatoes are easy to pierce with a fork but NOT MUSHY! This step will ensure that your potatoes will be soft on the inside and crunchy on the outside when they are done cooking.

While the potatoes are cooking, mix together the garlic salt, paprika and pepper and preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Once potatoes are ready, drain and move to a large bowl or back to the pot. Add olive oil and mix of seasoning. Stir to coat. Pour onto a greased baking sheet and make sure to spread them in a single layer.
