Y’all my roasted fingerling potatoes slap! I get them crispy on the outside with a marinade made with EVOO, garlic, rosemary, and spice while nailing that soft inside. They give a gourmet vibe without a lot of effort. I like to serve mine up as a side for any main or even as an appetizer dipped in remoulade sauce or horseradish sauce. It’s a win either way!

Roast Fingerling Potato Ingredients
- Fingerling Potatoes: If your potatoes are a little big, feel free to halve them y’all. You can easily swap in another super small potato like a baby red potato or cut up Yukon golds.
- Rosemary: It can be replaced with fresh thyme oregano, or even sage.
- Garlic: Garlic powder can be a backup, but fresh is best boos.
- Paprika: Smoked offers a ton of flavor.
- Cayenne Pepper: Reduce or increase based on your preference.
- Worcestershire Sauce: Soy sauce also works.
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil: Canola or vegetable oil are the best replacements here.
How to Roast Fingerling Potatoes
Step 1: Mix together the rosemary, garlic, paprika, cayenne, salt and pepper in a small bowl then set aside. In another bowl, whisk together the worcestershire and olive oil.
Step 2: Evenly spread the potatoes on a baking sheet then drizzle with the wet ingredients and sprinkle the herbs on top. Toss everything together and roast for 30-40 minutes in a preheated oven of 400°F until they are tender and cooked through.

Notes
How to Store Baked Fingerling Potatoes
Make sure they are cooled completely. Then pop any leftovers into an airtight container and store in the fridge. Baked fingerling potatoes can be reheated in a conventional or toaster oven set at 400 degrees for 10-15 minutes. The air fryer works great too! I don’t recommend using a microwave since you won’t get that nice crispy exterior but you can use it in a pinch if you need to.How long will this baked potato recipe last in the fridge?
They should last for up to 3-4 days.Can I freeze them?
Absolutely boos! Once they are cooled completely, spread them out on a parchment lined baking sheet and pop in the freezer for an hour to flash freeze them. Once solid, you can add them all to a freezer bag without worrying them will stick together. Make sure you remove all the air you can and label with the date. They should keep for about 3 months.Nutrition
Recipe Tips
- Go Fresh: If you can, go with fresh herbs versus dried herbs for the best quality flavor.
- Scrub A Dub: Since we are keeping those skins on, make sure you scrub the skins under cold water to get rid of that dirt boos.
- Dry Them: Make sure your potatoes are super dry after you wash the skins so they get crispy on the outside.
- Toss It Up: I like to toss twice while cooking so they are getting evenly browned.
