"Very little ever changes with a recipe for roasted potatoes. Bite-sized cubes go into the oven with a fresh pinch of herbs, a sprinkle of salt and pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil, and they come out golden and bursting with flavor. No need for a recipe card because you know the ingredients by heart - perhaps, a little too well."
"As it turns out, taco seasoning makes perfect sense in roasted potatoes. Looking past the name, it's really just chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and dried herbs mixed together. It's an inexpensive and delicious upgrade that will seep into the potatoes as they're roasting. You've got subtle sparks of smoky heat, flickering through the spuds' mildly starchy base, alongside an earthy depth and subtle savoriness from the blend's herbs."
Taco seasoning elevates roasted potatoes by introducing smoky heat, earthy depth, and savory herb notes that penetrate during roasting. The blend commonly contains chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and dried herbs, and can include citrus or nutty nuances depending on the brand. About one tablespoon per pound of potatoes sufficiently seasons the dish. Variations include adding dried chili flakes or using chipotle powder for more pronounced heat and smoke. Additional taco-inspired toppings can complete the dish, creating a simple, inexpensive, and flavorful upgrade to a classic roasted potato preparation.
