Tips and Shortcuts
Uniform Slices: Ensure the potato slices are of uniform thickness for even cooking.
Preheat the Baking Sheet: For extra crispy slices, preheat the baking sheet in the oven before arranging the potatoes.
Herb Variations: Experiment with different herbs like rosemary, thyme, or oregano for added flavor.
Cheese Lovers: Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on the slices during the last 5 minutes of roasting.
Recipe Swaps and Variations
Sweet Potatoes: Swap regular potatoes with sweet potatoes for a sweeter, nutrient-packed version.
Spicy Kick: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the seasoning mix.
Vegan Option: Ensure the recipe is vegan by using vegan-friendly cheese substitutes if adding cheese.
Storing Leftovers
If you have any leftovers (which is rare!), store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place the slices in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 10 minutes or until heated through.
