Ingredients
 
 

  • 2 pounds of potatoes red or Yukon gold work well
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped fresh parsley for garnish optional

Instructions
 

  • Scrub the potatoes well, and cut them into 1 inch cubes. No need to peel them, unless you just want to.
  • In a large bowl, toss the diced potatoes with olive oil until they are evenly coated.
  • In a small bowl, mix together garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and pepper.
  • Sprinkle the spice mixture over the potatoes and toss again to ensure the potatoes are well seasoned.
  • Transfer the seasoned potatoes to the slow cooker.
  • Cook on medium heat for 2-3 hours, or low heat for 4-6 hours or until the potatoes are tender and have a golden brown crust on the edges.
  • If you prefer crispier potatoes, you can transfer them to a baking sheet and broil in the oven for a few minutes until they reach your desired crispiness.
  • Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving, if desired.

Notes

❄️Storage Instructions

Refrigerator

  • Allow the roasted potatoes to cool to room temperature before storing them.
  • Transfer the cooled roasted potatoes to an airtight container or a resealable plastic bag.
  • Place the sealed container in the refrigerator promptly after the potatoes have cooled. Refrigerate within two hours of cooking to maintain freshness.

Freezer

  • You can freeze roasted potatoes, but the texture may change a bit, once they're defrosted.
  • To freeze, allow the potatoes to cool completely, then transfer them to an airtight container or freezer bag.
  • Roasted potatoes can generally be stored in the freezer for 10-12 months.

Reheating

  • When you're ready to serve the potatoes, you can reheat them in the oven or microwave. For a crispy texture, the broiler in the oven is a good option.
