11 years later and I just tried this for the first time. So simple and perfect. Served with a side of sour cream and chive for dipping. This is how I’m cooking red potatoes from now on!
Lol, I love how he says "pataytah" haha. Anyway, I made these today without the red peppers though. Still so good. Never buying the McCain frozen ones again.
The best part about this dish is how brutally easy everything is and how long it can stay warm. It's so hard to make side dishes when you're the only one in your relationship willing to cook. I scale this down to 1 potato per person for 2. It takes a little planning, but about ~3 minutes from the time I get out everything to the time it's in the oven and basically cooks itself while I'm making the main course for the two of us.
"Yes, I do believe that's potato blood." LOL! I like to add chunks of yellow onion and garlic. It gives the potatoes awesome flavor and has the same caramelizing effect of the peppers.
I just tried this recipie and it worked great. The different intervals of time and moving the potatoes around after each interval definitely makes the difference.
Chef John....Tried them today...came out P E R F E C T. The flavour from the peppers and the herbs combined. Crusty on the outside. Soft on the inside. It was such a homey comfort dish to have and share with the family. I made you proud.
Chef John! I just made these and they were delicious. I was too impatient (and hungry) to let them brown throughly, so I took them out a bit early and they're still DIVINE.
Chef John, I also love to cook(vegetarian) and feed others. Your sense of humor is awesome while cooking. Cooking should be fun and relaxing. Your cooking videos are the best. Anyone can become good at cooking provided they cook with interest and some right ingredients. If you love to feed others, it will be reflected in the taste. Thank you for sharing the videos and above all motivating others to try and have fun cooking. I made vegan version of your chocolate souffle and it came out perfetto!
Yesterday, we had some red potatoes in the pantry and wanted to add peppers as above. My wife grows "Jimmy Nordello" an Italian red frying pepper which grows well here in Sonoma County. It was out of this world - you really have to grow and try these "Jimmy Nordello" peppers - here they caramelized and became almost like pepper jerky - crazy good flavor. Thanks for the recipe!
LOVE the humor and your intonation. Going to try this for breakfast with a side of bacon & eggs! Of course, I'm going to take all the credit for the awesome breakfast from my guests! j/k !
Having spent the month of August 2019 in Levis, Quebec, I discovered the best potatoes in the world. They are grown on the island of Ile d' Orleans on small family farms. The skins are so thin that they almost aren't even there. I cook them in boiling water and then toss in duck fat which is fantastic and available everywhere here and with add some chopped red onion and a tiny bit of grated garlic, salt and pepper and it's like no potato dish that I've ever had. Back to the USA tomorrow and I'm already getting sad for the great fruits, vegetables, duck, veal and other non-factory food available up here north of Maine on the Saint Laurence River.
hehe..my mom used to make the same..but she added a bit rosemary, some garlic cloves, lemon slices and some chicken drumsticks/wings..so the potatos suck up some yummy juice..and the leftover juice in the pan makes a great "sauce" too ...experiment is what makes a good chef..and mommys are the best chefs ever..i bet even chef john would agree =)
Thanks for this Chef John. Have made this several times and it's always enjoyed by the 'entire' family. Also, sooooo love the chicken parmesan casserole and the mushroom gravy recipes. Please keep sharing.
It’s Mother’s Day! Celebrating this day quarantined due to covid-19. Been at home for over 48 days ... I have nothing but THYME! Ha! 🤪 I’m making these now so we’ll see how they come out. Happy Mother’s Day and stay Safe and Healthy!
2 pounds red potatoes, cut in evenly-sized pieces salt, pepper, cayenne to taste thyme sprigs, add whole and remove barren twigs after cooked 1/4 to 1/3 cup olive oil 1/2 large red bell pepper, seeded, cut in chunks
I love potatoes prepared this way. I used little yukon gold and I could eat the whole plate too! My grandma would make hers with the roast I would die for them!! The flavor was insane!!
When my dinner guests ask "How do you get your potatoes so crispy? Mine are never as good as these?" I then reveal the secret name of my recipe, "Oh Shit The Potatoes!"I put them in a hot oven, and usually remember to toss them at least once, and then go on with my other dinner prep. When we sit down to eat and everything is present at the table, I exclaim "oh shit, the potatoes!!" and at this point they are always always perfectly crispy and delicious, it's fool proof!
"Koshering salt, usually referred to as kosher salt in the US, is a variety of edible salt with a much larger grain size than some common table salt. Like common table salt, kosher salt consists of the chemical compound sodium chloride." Wikipedia is your friend :D
Chef John..I know this is an old video, but I used it tonight to make some potatoes as a side dish. It came out fantastic. The only thing I added was some slivers of Carolina Reaper peppers to the mix. It jumped up your cayenne a little bit.
very nice of you. :-) I am not a big fan of raw onions, but when I smell some cooking on the stove.. you might find you like them in other things okay, but I always cook them first - caramelized before putting into my meatloaf, etc. Or you may not, of course.... I'm a bit too picky to judge (and a pepper hater to boot, lol).
bruhh these are so good I have cooked lots of times but instead of peppers I use onions. I also put in garlic powder and Italian seasoning its sooooo good😘😘👌👌👌👏👏👏👏
I have prepared this many times with great results!...my only modification has been to add the red bell peppers at the first 30 minute toss. My oven seems to overly cook them...not in a bad way, still very good, except they turn almost completely black even when cutting into larger chunks. I toss in at the 30 minute mark to get the charred red color shown in Chef John's video. Not all ovens are alike.
Ooh, this looks good. I've only ever done the Kenji Lopez style or straight roasting in a baking dish on their own. I'm going to try this out tonight and see how it pairs with some Pork Chops.
I'm not alone, yay! I find it kind of hilarious that my comment's been voted down for not liking peppers, haha, so I especially appreciate the support. I love Chef John's stuff, so I'd probably just leave them out and try to make this, but apparently being a pepper hater is taboo among FoodWishers. :-)
i usually expand on this by adding bacon in the tray and also some garlic and in the end when they are almost done i add lots of balsamic and let it boil and caramelise.
I made these and they were so delicious. The red pepper does make a big difference. Gave alot of delicios flavor. I Did not have to cook mine as long maybe about thirty five minutes and they came out crspy on the outside and tender on the inside. Thnk chef 😉
you´re doing good. in profesional kitchens, that is what most cooks do. you get an even coating of oils, herbs and spices. i like to add the last 5 or 10 minutes my fresh herbs, that way they don´t come out burned.
One ingredient, only potatoes. It's not easy because it needs care. The result is as you see it on this video. I added a splash of water and a "bit" of butter. A dream!
I made these tonight and were awesome but I over generously salted. I also combined the pan fried chicken breasts with chicken breasts and mushrooms. Chicken was done before potatoes and over salted again but super good! It will be better next time. But I will never be as good a chef as you :)

Made tonight in toaster oven. Used higher temp 425. Added rosemary after 1st 30 minutes to lessen burning. Came out crispy and delish! Thank you!

Why would anyone thumb down this . Wow some people in this world
This is one of those killer, magical, how can it be so simple treats from Chef John. It gets me every time.
I have just bought some of these potatoes.
Long cooking time, but a delicious result.
i seriously love the way chef john pronounces it "puhtatuh"
"Yes, I do believe that's potato blood." LOL!
I like to add chunks of yellow onion and garlic. It gives the potatoes awesome flavor and has the same caramelizing effect of the peppers.
Yes! Can't have too much onions (preferably red) and garlic (never quite enough). And btw keep the red bell pepper as well. Good eats!
Love this guy!! Great commentary, funny, love his voice, love his recipes!
I made this as a side dish to your Slow Cooker Pot Roast recipe. OMG, my house smells so good right now. Onions, herbs, meat!
I made these last night, and they were delicious!
I stand by my statement.
I loved this video and your narration. It was just because of your humor I subscribed...and you delicious cooking of course. :)
***** Same here!
I made these potatoes last night and they came out really good. They were a big hit with the family, defenitely keeping this recipe!
Back again, best potato recipe on the interweb...... just awesome and easy!
Looove this recipe! Plate always gets cleared with this. I added bacon in there. Perfect!
Love the way he says 'potatoes'
You mean the right way? ;)
Sounds like my Irish Grandmother!
Patatas
Most entertaining cooking video I've seen on RUclips hands down xD
only rival would be you suck at cooking vidoes
I just tried this recipie and it worked great. The different intervals of time and moving the potatoes around after each interval definitely makes the difference.
Made this recipe about a million times comes out great everytime 👌🏼
"there is no cost to be the boss" I love it!! :)
Chef John....Tried them today...came out P E R F E C T. The flavour from the peppers and the herbs combined. Crusty on the outside. Soft on the inside. It was such a homey comfort dish to have and share with the family. I made you proud.
I'll have to try this method on my grill.
chef john is the best, he adds tips, jokes, etc that makes foodwishes the best cooking channel!
I often cook this recipe with your olive chicken recipe. They pair well together and are a favorite in my family. I'm making them tonight actually :)
Thanks for that because now I will look up his olive chicken recipe.
Chef John! I just made these and they were delicious. I was too impatient (and hungry) to let them brown throughly, so I took them out a bit early and they're still DIVINE.
I love making potato salad with roasted potatoes. That extra somethin somethin is always a welcome addition to the salad party.
After all that, I’m gonna do it the way I have done it for 50 years ! Deep fryer 😍😍😍

A Week later, my potatoes were ready and I was able to Finally eat them...
IrmaU94 He could've tried at least.
Unless you pre-boil or microwave them.
+psycold
Microwave!!!!! Eureka!!!!!!!! how about a youtube channel dedicated to cooking food in microwaves? Brilliant!!!! Please don't steal my idea.
Lafavini Cali 😂😂
lmfaoooo

Absolutely the best RUclips channel for anyone who likes to cook (eat). Thank you!
Im using thyme this time but sometimes...
+WillPG1212 bars
Lol
(Four years later) It helps if you have thyme on your hands ;)
Not a big dill.

Been craving these lately and RUclips read my mind by recommending this video from 4 years ago.
After watching this video, i realized that my mouth was filled with saliva and it has started to drip on my table. SO DELICIOUS.
hehe..my mom used to make the same..but she added a bit rosemary, some garlic cloves, lemon slices and some chicken drumsticks/wings..so the potatos suck up some yummy juice..and the leftover juice in the pan makes a great "sauce" too ...experiment is what makes a good chef..and mommys are the best chefs ever..i bet even chef john would agree =)
When it comes to foodwishes the words simple and awesome are automatically implied.
I just noticed that I do not have a potato pan like that one you have, a must have.
His sarcasm and wit is what we love about Chef John.
Thanks for this Chef John. Have made this several times and it's always enjoyed by the 'entire' family. Also, sooooo love the chicken parmesan casserole and the mushroom gravy recipes. Please keep sharing.
Side Dish Recipe?!? This is an Amazing Main Meal!
Followed this video step by step and they came out just like his. Thanks
Sorry to hear that
I LOL'd at the note to "nerds", that appeared at the bottom of the screen about the pepper cubes! 😂
Thank you chef John. I tried it today and it tasted very good.
I tried it and it was really good. They were a hit. My first time making red potatoes. Will be doing them again for Christmas. Great video.
Intense. Potato. (Side-dish.) Pleasure.
*blush*
I love these roasted potato with generous amount of cayenne, rosemary and sea salt so delicious
It’s Mother’s Day! Celebrating this day quarantined due to covid-19. Been at home for over 48 days ... I have nothing but THYME! Ha! 🤪 I’m making these now so we’ll see how they come out. Happy Mother’s Day and stay Safe and Healthy!
the roasted thyme pieces are also really really nice
Thank you! My go to channel for everything
It doesn't cost to be the boss of your own potatoes...lol... I love chef john
2 pounds red potatoes, cut in evenly-sized pieces
salt, pepper, cayenne to taste
thyme sprigs, add whole and remove barren twigs after cooked
1/4 to 1/3 cup olive oil
1/2 large red bell pepper, seeded, cut in chunks
I love potatoes prepared this way. I used little yukon gold and I could eat the whole plate too! My grandma would make hers with the roast I would die for them!! The flavor was insane!!
Wow! I just found this video from 7 years ago. I was trying to find new ways to do potatoes and found you.
1:58 "Don't touch it", touches it immediately
I love potatoes. They make me happy :)
I LOVE roasting my own potatoes, I am so going to try adding the red pepper.
I may not always follow your recipes but I always love your videos :)
When my dinner guests ask "How do you get your potatoes so crispy? Mine are never as good as these?" I then reveal the secret name of my recipe, "Oh Shit The Potatoes!"I put them in a hot oven, and usually remember to toss them at least once, and then go on with my other dinner prep.

"There is no cost to be your own potatoe boss" Wells Said.
We love your videos! My husband and I are doing seared scallops and asparagus with these potatoes.
Amazing 🤩
I’m going to try this ,
+ last 15 min
So easy to make been doing this forever love potatoes
that said and one more important thing. do not be insolent to rude to better people than yourself. no problem. it was a pleasure.
Chef John you rock!!!! :)
I just made a variation of this using regular potatoes, it was SO GOOD! The peppers really make a giant difference! Thanks :)

Am I the only one that loves the way he says "potatah" ???
Chef John..I know this is an old video, but I used it tonight to make some potatoes as a side dish. It came out fantastic. The only thing I added was some slivers of Carolina Reaper peppers to the mix. It jumped up your cayenne a little bit.
Tips were great, dish was Awesome! Merci Chef.
very nice of you. :-) I am not a big fan of raw onions, but when I smell some cooking on the stove.. you might find you like them in other things okay, but I always cook them first - caramelized before putting into my meatloaf, etc. Or you may not, of course....

bruhh these are so good I have cooked lots of times but instead of peppers I use onions. I also put in garlic powder and Italian seasoning its sooooo good😘😘👌👌👌👏👏👏👏
drooling over this as i sit here with my bag of chips.....
I have prepared this many times with great results!...my only modification has been to add the red bell peppers at the first 30 minute toss. My oven seems to overly cook them...not in a bad way, still very good, except they turn almost completely black even when cutting into larger chunks. I toss in at the 30 minute mark to get the charred red color shown in Chef John's video. Not all ovens are alike.
Agreed! Great idea, that's what I did the 3rd time and, oh yeah, OH YEAHHHHHH!!!!....
Ooh, this looks good. I've only ever done the Kenji Lopez style or straight roasting in a baking dish on their own. I'm going to try this out tonight and see how it pairs with some Pork Chops.
Definitely like rosemary better. Also, I drizzle a little olive oil over the top. It eliminates the need to keep turning them.
I'm not alone, yay! I find it kind of hilarious that my comment's been voted down for not liking peppers, haha, so I especially appreciate the support. I love Chef John's stuff, so I'd probably just leave them out and try to make this, but apparently being a pepper hater is taboo among FoodWishers. :-)
i have a huge rosemary plant in my back yard it taste good to with gold potatoes
Great vid! However, I use additional seasonings - fresh rosemary, paprika, basil, red onions, and bell peppers. Yummm- my!!!
This recipe works with whatever potatoes you have on hand.
I don't say this lightly but, I love this more then Good Eats.
These are delightful! Just made some. Thank you for this enjoyable video!
i usually expand on this by adding bacon in the tray and also some garlic and in the end when they are almost done i add lots of balsamic and let it boil and caramelise.
because of you, chef john, i put cayenne in like everything and anything possible.
I made these and they were so delicious. The red pepper does make a big difference. Gave alot of delicios flavor. I Did not have to cook mine as long maybe about thirty five minutes and they came out crspy on the outside and tender on the inside. Thnk chef 😉
Thanks!
The only thing I do different is use a big bowl and toss the potatoes & olive oil before I put them into the pan - which also has olive oil.
you´re doing good. in profesional kitchens, that is what most cooks do. you get an even coating of oils, herbs and spices. i like to add the last 5 or 10 minutes my fresh herbs, that way they don´t come out burned.
I will have to do this one.
thanks again you make a cooking world very easy for me God bless!!
One ingredient, only potatoes. It's not easy because it needs care. The result is as you see it on this video.
I added a splash of water and a "bit" of butter. A dream!
I love this guys commentary! What a great yourtube channel!
My favorite potato, yum.😋
Wow! results awesome. Many thanks Chef!
Dunno why i always feel more hungry when watching this than watching epic meal time
Chef John wasn''t INthe gang. He WAS the gang.
I made these tonight and were awesome but I over generously salted. I also combined the pan fried chicken breasts with chicken breasts and mushrooms. Chicken was done before potatoes and over salted again but super good! It will be better next time. But I will never be as good a chef as you :)
These potatoes i was happy to eat with a fish dinner but goes with any meat. Nice looking when done n tasteful! My compliments
Looks great - I’m thinking you could do this same thing with carrots, too. Or turnips.... really a good, simple, idea! Thank
You!
