Low Fat Roasted New Potatoes

By Fiona Haynes, About.com

A perfect accompaniment to roast chicken or tenderloin, these low fat roasted new potatoes can be cooked in the same oven as the meat, then the heat can be turned up to 450 degrees to crisp them once the meat is out of the oven and resting.

Cook Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 pounds new potatoes, evenly sized
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp dried mixed herbs
  • Freshly ground black pepper

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Combine oil and herbs in a bowl. Toss scrubbed new potatoes in the oil and place on a baking tray. Season with salt and pepper. Roast potatoes for 40-45 minutes until tender, turning occasionally.

If you are roasting the potatoes in the same oven as a roast chicken, place them in the oven 30 minutes before you expect the chicken to be done. Once the chicken is cooked and out of the oven, turn up the heat to 450 degrees so the potatoes can become crisp on the outside.
