Fire Cracker Roasted Potatoes

Happy Fourth of July! Last 4th were in New York City( The picture above is The Empire State Building at night on the 4th) and we celebrated with a baseball game,  fireworks, a great dinner out and a late night walk to the top of the Empire State Building!

This 4th, we will be road tripping through Canada! But, just because we'll be in a different country, that doesn't mean we won't still  celebrate our country's special holiday!

 

BBQ, burgers, grilled food and sides are one of America's favorite ways to celebrate any holiday, especially the 4th. My Fire Cracker Roasted Potatoes make a great side dish for BBQ, burgers, grilled meats and veggies!

Ingredients:
17 Small Red Potatoes (Or enough to feed you crowd!)
2-3 TBS Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper
2 TSP Paprika
1/2 TSP Chili Powder

Wash and dice up the potatoes into cubes. The smaller they are, the faster they will cook, but don't make them too small!

Place them in a 9x13 baking dish and shake the pan to make an even layer.

 

 

Drizzle with the oil and sprinkle with the seasonings.

 

Stir to coat all the potato cubes and place in an oven PREHEATED TO 350 DEGREES.

Cook for 45-50 minutes, stirring every 20 minutes or so. To check readiness, poke with a fork. If the fork goes in easily, then they're ready!

 

Yummy! They smell so good and taste even better!

 

Serve these with your favorite dipping sauce or plain with your BBQs, Burgers, Grilled meats and more! A fun, Patriotic twist would be to use a few purple potatoes in the mix as well. Then you get the full, red-white-and-blue effect!

 

 

Happy Fourth of July! I hope you have a great holiday, and if you try my Fire Cracker Potatoes, let me know what you think!
