Steps
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

- Drizzle olive oil over the potatoes and season with salt, pepper, rosemary, and parsley.

Tips
- Use Yukon Gold or red potatoes for a buttery texture and flavor.
- For extra crispiness, broil the potatoes for the last 2–3 minutes.
- Add garlic powder or minced garlic for added depth of flavor.
