Ingredients
  

2 pounds baby potatoes (halved or quartered)

3 tablespoons olive oil

2 teaspoons smoked paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon dried dill (or 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped)

1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

½ cup ranch dressing (store-bought or homemade)

Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). This high heat will help the potatoes get crispy and delicious.

    Prepare the potatoes: In a large bowl, combine the halved or quartered baby potatoes. Make sure they are all roughly the same size for even cooking.

      Make the seasoning mix: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried dill, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

        Coat the potatoes: Pour the seasoning mix over the potatoes in the large bowl. Toss well to ensure that all potatoes are evenly coated with the mixture.

          Arrange on baking sheet: Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Make sure they are not overcrowded, which helps them roast evenly.

            Roast the potatoes: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Roast the potatoes for about 25-30 minutes, tossing halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

              Serve with ranch: Once roasted, remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Serve hot, drizzled with ranch dressing and garnished with fresh parsley if desired.

                Enjoy: These Smokey Paprika Ranch Roasted Potatoes make for a perfect side dish, snack, or appetizer. Enjoy the tangy and smoky flavors with family and friends!
