Notes
- To save time, you can use pre-cut, refrigerated potato cubes available at grocery stores to save time on chopping.
- I like to use garlic paste or jarred minced garlic for easier prep.
- Buy frozen or fresh pre-diced onions as another time-saving shortcut.
- If you don’t have roasted red pepper dressing on hand, you can use sun-dried tomato dressing or even a chipotle dressing
- Test the potatoes with a fork for tenderness. If they are browning too quickly, cover the dish with foil to prevent burning while allowing them to cook through.
- Yukon gold or red potatoes can be used instead of russet, although they will yield a bit of a different texture and flavor.
- Adjust the chipotle spice to your taste. You can also mix in smoked paprika for a smoky flavor without extra heat.
- If desired, add your favorite herbs such as rosemary, thyme, or parsley for even more flavor.
- Sprinkle grated Parmesan or crumbled feta cheese over the potatoes for added richness.
- You can add other vegetables like diced bell peppers, zucchini, or carrots for additional color and flavor.
- Alternate cooking methods:
- Spread the potatoes on a parchment-lined baking sheet for faster cooking and easier cleanup. This will also result in crispier potatoes.
- Microwave the cubed potatoes for 5-7 minutes before tossing with the dressing mixture. This can reduce oven time and ensure the potatoes cook evenly.
