Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
Prepare the Potatoes: In a large bowl, toss the potato slices with olive oil, ensuring each slice is well coated. Season with salt, pepper, and paprika (if using), and toss again to distribute the seasoning evenly.
Roast the Potatoes: Arrange the seasoned potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Scatter the crushed garlic cloves and rosemary sprigs over the potatoes. If desired, add small pieces of butter on top of the potato slices for extra richness.
Bake: Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the bottoms are golden and crispy. Flip the slices and continue roasting for another 15-20 minutes, until both sides are golden brown and the potatoes are tender.
Serve: Remove the roasted potato slices from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish. Garnish with extra fresh herbs if desired, and serve hot.
Tips:
Variations: For a different flavor, consider adding other herbs like thyme or parsley.
Crispier Potatoes: To achieve extra crispiness, increase the oven temperature to 425°F (220°C) for the last 10 minutes of roasting.
Pairing Suggestions: These potatoes are a great match for grilled meats, roasted chicken, or a fresh salad.
