Ingredients

Scale

Potatoes and Meats

  • 4 large Russet potatoes, peeled and cut into cubes or wedges
  • 6 slices smoked turkey bacon, chopped

Seasonings and Oils

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon paprika (natural)
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)

Herbs

  • 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare and Cut the Potatoes: Wash and peel the potatoes, then cut them into uniform cubes or wedges to ensure even cooking and maximum crispiness. Soak the cut potatoes in cold water for 20 minutes to remove excess starch, then drain and pat dry thoroughly.
  2. Preheat the Oven and Prep the Baking Sheet: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil (natural) to create a non-stick surface for crisp roasting.
  3. Season the Potatoes: Place the dried potatoes in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil (natural) and toss with garlic powder (natural), paprika (natural), salt, and pepper. Add the fresh rosemary and vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural) to enhance the flavor and umami.
  4. Add the Smoked Turkey Bacon: Chop the smoked turkey bacon into small pieces and scatter evenly over the seasoned potatoes before roasting, allowing the bacon to crisp alongside and infuse savory depth.
  5. Roast Until Golden Brown: Arrange the potatoes and bacon in a single layer on the baking sheet, making sure they are spread out for even roasting. Roast for 35 to 40 minutes at 425°F (220°C), turning halfway through to crisp all sides thoroughly.
  6. Final Touches: Remove the potatoes from the oven once they are golden and crispy. Let them rest for a few minutes to allow the exterior to firm up further, ensuring a crunchy bite with a tender inside.

Notes

  • Use completely dry potatoes before seasoning to avoid sogginess and maximize crispiness.
  • Do not crowd the pan; leave enough space between potato pieces for even roasting and to prevent steaming.
  • Roasting at high heat is key to achieving a crispy exterior and fluffy interior.
  • Use quality olive oil (natural) for better flavor and crisping.
  • Turn potatoes halfway through cooking for an evenly golden crust on all sides.
