Ingredients

5 red potatoes medium size
1 Tablespoon calabrian chili paste
1 Tablespoon olive oil
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon salt
lemon optional

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Wash and scrub the potatoes. Dice into 1 inch chunks.
Into a large bowl, add the Calabrian chili paste, olive oil, garlic powder, and salt. Stir to combine. Add the diced potatoes to the bowl and stir to coat.
Spread out the potatoes onto a baking sheet and place in the oven. Roast for 20 minutes, then toss and cook another 15-20 minutes until potatoes are crispy and cooked through.
Remove from the oven. Serve with lemon and fresh herbs.

Notes

Want to spice it up a little more? Take a tablespoon of Calabrian chili paste, juice from ½ a lemon, and 2 tablespoons of butter and heat in a small skillet. Pour over the potatoes for a buttery, spicy sauce.

The roasting time of the potatoes will depend on how large you cut the potatoes (and also the type of potato you use). If you wind up using russet potatoes or yukon gold potatoes, the cook time may be longer or shorter.

These potatoes have a bit of heat, but not too much. To amplify the heat, add more Calabrian chili paste to the potatoes.
