Ingredients

For the Roasted Potatoes

2 lbs baby potatoes or Yukon gold potatoes, halved
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
Salt and black pepper to taste

For the Chimichurri Drizzle

4–5 tablespoons Chimi Boss Blends Authentic Chimichurri Sauce
Fresh parsley for garnish
Flaky sea salt for finishing

How to Make Chimichurri Roasted Potatoes

1) Prep the Potatoes

Preheat your oven to 425°F / 220°C. Wash and dry the potatoes thoroughly — dry potatoes are the key to a crispy exterior. Halve them and place in a large mixing bowl. The cut side down in the oven is what gives you those beautiful golden caramelized edges.

2) Season and Coat

Drizzle the potatoes with olive oil and toss to coat evenly. Add garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss again until every potato is fully coated in the seasoned oil. Don't be shy with the seasoning — potatoes can handle bold flavor.

3) Roast to Crispy Perfection

Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a large baking sheet — cut side down. Make sure they are not touching each other. Overcrowding is the enemy of crispy potatoes. Roast at 425°F for 30–35 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until deep golden brown and crispy on the edges.

4) Drizzle with Chimichurri

Remove the potatoes from the oven and immediately transfer to a serving platter. While they are still piping hot, drizzle generously with Chimi Boss Blends Authentic Chimichurri Sauce. The heat from the potatoes warms the chimichurri and helps it soak into every crispy crevice for maximum flavor.

5) Garnish and Serve

Finish with a scattering of fresh parsley and a pinch of flaky sea salt. Serve immediately as a side dish alongside your favorite grilled protein or as a bold, satisfying snack straight from the platter.

Tips for the Crispiest Roasted Potatoes

• Dry your potatoes completely. Moisture is the enemy of crispiness. Pat potatoes dry with paper towels after washing and make sure there is no excess water before adding olive oil.
- Use high heat. 425°F is the sweet spot for roasted potatoes — hot enough to crisp the exterior without drying out the interior.
- Don't crowd the pan. Give every potato its own space on the baking sheet. Overcrowding traps steam and results in soft, soggy potatoes instead of crispy golden ones.
- Cut side down. Always roast halved potatoes cut side down — this is what gives you those gorgeous golden caramelized flat surfaces.
- Drizzle chimichurri while hot. Adding the chimichurri sauce immediately out of the oven allows the heat to open up the sauce and lets the bold herb flavor soak into the crispy potatoes perfectly.

Chimichurri Roasted Potato Variations

Spicy Chimichurri Potatoes

Use Chimi Boss Blends Infierno Chimichurri Sauce instead of the original for a fiery, smoky twist that brings serious heat alongside the crispy potatoes.

Chimichurri Smashed Potatoes

Boil baby potatoes until just tender, then smash them flat on a baking sheet and roast at 425°F until ultra crispy. Drizzle with chimichurri sauce for an even crispier, more dramatic presentation.

Chimichurri Sweet Potato Wedges

Swap regular potatoes for sweet potato wedges roasted at 400°F for 25 minutes. The natural sweetness of the sweet potato combined with the bold herb flavor of chimichurri is an incredible combination.

Chimichurri Potato Salad

Roast the potatoes, let them cool slightly, then toss with chimichurri sauce, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and fresh herbs for a bold, herby warm potato salad that is leagues above anything mayo-based.

Storage & Reheating

Store leftover chimichurri roasted potatoes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. To reheat and restore their crispiness, spread on a baking sheet and roast at 400°F for 8–10 minutes. Avoid microwaving — it makes them soft and soggy. Add a fresh drizzle of chimichurri sauce after reheating for maximum flavor.
