Ingredients You Will Need
This side dish of roasted fingerling potatoes is very simple and uses a few ingredients you likely have in your kitchen.
- Fingerling potatoes – while any baby potato will work very well, I love these long mini potatoes. So creamy and delicious!

- Pepper
Expert Tip: While the seasoning for this recipe is simple with just salt, pepper and garlic, it can easily be expanded upon. Some options for additional seasonings include herbs (oregano, thyme, etc), paprika, chipotle, and more!
Cut And Season The Potatoes!
To get the fingerling potatoes ready to go in the oven, I like to cut them in half. Cut them lengthwise along the long side of the potato. This will provide a bigger surface area which is great for the roasting because it allows more of the potato to be coated in the oil and seasoning.
One the potatoes are cut in half, toss them in the oil, salt, pepper and minced garlic. Then spread them in a ceramic baking dish or baking sheet (lined with parchment paper).
That’s it. Prepping these potatoes for the oven is simple and quick. These oven roasted fingerling potatoes are perfect for a weeknight meal!
How Long To Roast Potatoes?
Preheat the oven to 375F. Place the potatoes in the oven and cook until the potatoes are cooked through and tender. This should take around 40 minutes or so.
The aroma in the kitchen as these cook is so incredible.
