These air fryer potatoes are perfectly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. They make a great side dish or snack and are seasoned to your liking. Plus, they're quick and easy to make with minimal cleanup!

Ingredients

  • 4-5 medium-sized potatoes, such as Yukon Gold or Russet,
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika (optional)
  • Fresh herbs (like rosemary, thyme, or parsley) for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Potatoes: Wash and peel the potatoes if you prefer. Cut them into bite-sized pieces, keeping them as uniform as possible for even cooking.
  2. Season the Potatoes: Put the pieces of potato into a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, then add salt, pepper, and any optional seasonings like garlic powder and paprika. Mix everything thoroughly until the potatoes are evenly coated.
  3. Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 375-400°F (190-200°C) and let it preheat.
  4. Cook the Potatoes: Once preheated, add the seasoned potato pieces to the air fryer basket. Depending on your air fryer's size, you may need to cook in batches to avoid overcrowding. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, shaking or tossing them every 5-10 minutes to ensure even cooking. Check for doneness by poking a fork or knife into a potato piece to see if it’s soft inside.
  5. Serve: When the potatoes are golden brown and crispy, remove them from the air fryer and transfer them to a serving dish. If desired, top with fresh herbs such as rosemary, thyme, or parsley.

Serving Suggestions

Enjoy these crispy air fryer potatoes hot as a delicious side dish or as a tasty snack. They complement your favorite dipping sauce perfectly!
