Continue adding the potatoes between the chicken

These are some of my favorite ingredients to coat my potatoes in. You can swap them with some of the ones you like but the way these ingredients mix together tastes so good. Make sure you coat the potatoes in olive oil so the seasonings can stick to them. I also let the seasoning sit for a few minutes so it can really soak into the potatoes.

2 tablespoon olive oil to coat the potatoes
2 yellow yukon potatoes
2 tbs minced garlic
½ chopped white onion
2 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon rosemary
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder

You need to let this recipe rest before serving because once it comes out of the oven it's extremely hot.
