Ingredients
  

  • 4 small yukon potatoes or 2 big ones, quartered
  • 1 large red bell pepper chopped
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 cup fresh Parsley chopped
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons za’atar spice

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Clean and cut the potatoes into 4’s and chop up the bell pepper. Pro tip: Keep the potatoes uniform in size so they roast evenly. Place them onto the baking sheet in a single layer
  • Drizzle with the olive oil and spices and then sprinkle the za’atar seasoning over the top. Mix well using your hands or a spatula to ensure the potatoes and peppers are all coated.
  • Roast for 25-30 minutes, rotating the tray once. Potatoes are done when they are fork tender and golden. Remove from the oven and sprinkle the parsley across the top. Let cool for a few minutes. Serve with your favorite main course or breakfast.

Notes:
Storing and Reheating:
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2-3 days. Reheat in the microwave on high for 1-2 minutes or reheat in the oven at 350 degrees F.
Helpful tips for Roasted Za’atar Potatoes:
- Do not cut the potatoes too small or they will cook much faster and possibly burn.
- Keep them uniform in size to ensure even cooking.
- Avoid overcrowding the pan. This will cause the potatoes to steam and not roast.
- Add the parsley after the potatoes are done to avoid burning the herbs.
