- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp black pepper

Instructions
- 1
Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water by at least 1 inch. Add a generous pinch of salt and bring to a boil over high heat. Cook until the potatoes are completely tender and a fork slides in with no resistance, about 20–25 minutes. Drain and let them sit in the colander for 2–3 minutes to steam dry.

Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Drizzle 1 tbsp of the olive oil onto a large sheet pan and spread it across the surface.
