ADOBO ROASTED POTATOES
Using a classic Puerto Rican adobo seasoning - an island staple blend of garlic powder, oregano and black pepper - this recipe yields simple, savory roasted potatoes. They pair well with grilled meat and seafood, or make for a flavorful addition to any vegetable plate. The seasoning mix can be doubled or tripled (or more), with the rest stored in the pantry as an all-purpose seasoning, as it's often used in Puerto Rican cooking to add instant flavor to stewed meats, beans and more. Roasted potatoes will keep for at least a week in the fridge, so make a big batch to snack on, add them to salads and soups, or smash and fry them for breakfast home fries.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 400 degrees and line a medium rimmed baking sheet with foil or parchment.
- Prepare the adobo seasoning: In a small bowl, combine 1½ teaspoons salt with the garlic powder, oregano, turmeric and pepper, and mix well with a fork.
- Put potatoes in a large bowl and randomly poke a few small holes in each with a fork. Pour in 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and toss potatoes well, then sprinkle with the adobo seasoning, and stir to combine. Pour in the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and toss a bit more to ensure the potatoes are evenly coated with spices.
- Transfer potatoes to the lined baking sheet in an even layer, being careful not to crowd the pan.
- Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, shaking the pan every 10 minutes or so. Potatoes are done when they pierce easily with a fork or the tip of a sharp knife. Taste and add more salt, if desired.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with heavy-duty aluminum foil.
- Combine broccoli and cauliflower florets with 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large mixing bowl. Add 1 teaspoon rosemary and 1 teaspoon thyme. Season with salt and pepper. Spread mixture onto 1 of the prepared baking sheets.
- Add Brussels sprouts to the same large mixing bowl. Add 3 tablespoons olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Spread mixture onto remaining prepared baking sheet.
- Roast in the preheated oven, gently stirring every 5 minutes, until broccoli and cauliflower are lightly browned and Brussels sprouts are dark brown, 20 to 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place sweet potatoes into the mixing bowl. Add 3 tablespoons olive oil, remaining rosemary, and remaining thyme. Season with salt and pepper and stir to combine. Remove roasted vegetables from the oven and transfer to a large disposable foil pan. Place sweet potatoes onto 1 of the foil-lined baking sheets used prior.
- Roast potatoes in the hot oven until tender, stirring every 5 minutes, for 30 to 35 minutes. Remove roasted sweet potatoes and transfer to the disposable foil pan.

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Look for firm, unblemished potatoes. Yukon Gold, Red Bliss, and Russet potatoes are all good choices for roasting.
- Cut the potatoes evenly: This will help them cook evenly. Aim for 1-inch cubes or wedges.
- Toss the potatoes with oil and seasonings: This will help them crisp up and develop flavor. Use olive oil, avocado oil, or melted butter. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and any other herbs or spices you like.
- Roast the potatoes at a high temperature: This will help them get crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Aim for 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: If the potatoes are too crowded, they will steam instead of roast. Spread them out in a single layer on the baking sheet.
- Roast the potatoes until they are tender and browned: This will take about 20-30 minutes. Use a fork to check the potatoes for doneness.
- Serve the potatoes immediately: Roasted potatoes are best served hot and crispy. You can garnish them with fresh herbs, grated Parmesan cheese, or a dollop of sour cream.
Conclusion:
Roasted potatoes are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be served with a variety of main courses. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect roasted potatoes for your next gathering.
