• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon paprika (optional)
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Wash the potatoes thoroughly and cut them into bite-sized pieces. Leave the skin on for added texture and flavor.
3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, black pepper, paprika, and cayenne pepper (if using). Mix well to create a flavorful seasoning.
