Roasted Fingerling Potatoes are thin skinned and crispy on the outside, yet so creamy and smooth on the inside. They are smaller potatoes, so they cook quickly and are loaded with fresh seasonings that make these potatoes irresistible. I absolutely love potatoes! I think they are the perfect companion to any meal. Whether it’s an Air Fryer Sweet Potato, some creamy Mashed Potatos, or just a regular old Baked Potato, I love them all equally. These fingerling potatoes are about to move to the top of your list.
Roasted Fingerling Potatoes
Roasted fingerling potatoes- if you’ve never had them, you are missing out on a next level potato experience. Are all potatoes created equally? Don’t even get me started on the different kinds of potatoes and their uses, I’ll be here all day! Let’s just say, I’m a potato connoisseur and I would never lead you astray when it comes to potato dishes. Potatoes are the perfect side dish, and these fingerling potatoes are at the top of the list for me. So what makes them so amazing? Fingerling potatoes are different than roasted red potatoes. I would say the fingerling and red potato are pretty similar. Fingerlings are smaller than a russet (try those as an air fryer baked potato!) and have thin skins. They come in a variety of colors and their flavor is nutty and earthy. They are definitely worth tracking down because they really do taste amazing. You should be able to find them at your local grocery store with no problems!
Ingredients
Basically, all you need is fingerling potatoes and your choice of seasonings. I really recommend using this recipe because the flavors that I add come together for the perfect potato recipe. These potatoes are amazing served along with grilled bbq chicken or a delicious air fryer steak. You can eat them with pork or really any protein. They don’t even need a dipping sauce they are so moist and delicious! You can find the measurements below in the recipe card.
Fingerling Potatoes: You should be able to find some in a bag at your local grocery store. They are kind of long and skinny. Olive Oil: This is to saute the onions and coat the potatoes. Onion: Sauteed onions do SO much for adding flavor to potatoes. It’s worth the extra step I promise! Garlic: Fresh garlic is next level on potatoes. You could add garlic powder if you wanted. Italian Seasoning: I like to make my own homemade blend because it just tastes so fresh. Salt and Pepper: Season to taste.
Fingerling Potato Recipe
I love how easy it is to make fingerling potato recipe. They are smaller so they don’t take too long to cook. You cut them in half which helps them cook evenly. It also makes them easy to coat in seasoning. You are going to love the crispy outside and creamy inside on these potatoes! Get ready for your new favorite side dish recipe.
Cheese: Every potato deserves the perfect cheese. I personally love parmesan cheese, the freshly grated kind and the dried powdered kind. You can add whatever type of cheese you want! I also love aged white cheddar and gouda. You could also do a cheese sauce like homemade cheese sauce and white spinach queso. Sprinkle your favorite kind on top! Fresh Herbs: Potatoes taste amazing with fresh herbs on top. You can add things like rosemary, thyme, and parsley before you pop them in the oven. You may want to add parsley after you pull it out of the oven because it can burn. It also adds a fresh pop of color that makes these look even more delicious.
In the Refrigerator: Let your leftovers completely cool before you put them in the fridge. Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
