Provided by HeatherS

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 pounds red potatoes, well-scrubbed and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 package (10 ounces) pearl onions, peeled
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons dried basil leaves or thyme leaves
1 teaspoon paprika
/34 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon dried rosemary
3/4 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Spray large shallow roasting pan (do not use glass baking dish or potatoes will not brown) with nonstick cooking spray. Add potatoes and onions to pan; drizzle with oil. Combine basil, paprika, salt, rosemary and pepper in small bowl; mix well. Sprinkle over potatoes and onions; toss well to coat lightly with oil and seasonings. Bake 20 minutes; toss well. Continue baking 15 to 20 minutes or until potatoes are browned and tender.

Tips:

  • Choose the right size onions. Pearl onions are small onions, about the size of a marble. They are the perfect size for roasting because they cook evenly and quickly. If you can't find pearl onions, you can use small white or yellow onions, but you may need to adjust the cooking time.
  • Cut the onions in half. This will help them cook evenly and also make it easier to remove the skins after roasting.
  • Toss the onions with olive oil, salt, and pepper. This will help them brown and caramelize in the oven.
  • Roast the onions at a high temperature. This will help them caramelize and develop a delicious flavor.
  • Stir the onions occasionally while they are roasting. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Roast the potatoes separately. This will help them cook more evenly and prevent them from becoming soggy.
  • Add the potatoes to the onions towards the end of the roasting time. This will help them warm through without overcooking.
  • Serve the onions and potatoes immediately. They are best enjoyed hot and crispy.

Conclusion:

Roasted pearl onions and potatoes are a delicious and easy side dish that can be served with a variety of main courses. The onions are caramelized and slightly sweet, while the potatoes are crispy and tender. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
