Potatoes are such a versatile and affordable side dish, but sometimes they need a little upgrade. That’s where these balsamic roasted potatoes come in, roasting up perfectly with a crisp outside and soft interior!

I love how the tangy balsamic caramelizes in the oven, creating a flavorful coating that pairs perfectly with any main dish, just like our Roasted Russet Potatoes and Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes.

Why I love this recipe

  • It’s super easy to make but looks and tastes fancy.
  • The ingredients are simple and usually already in my pantry.
  • It’s a crowd-pleaser – even picky eaters love it.
  • The balsamic vinegar adds a unique twist to classic roasted potatoes.

Ingredients

balsamic potatoes
  • olive oil
  • garlic
  • fresh rosemary
  • kosher salt
  • pepper
  • red potatoes
  • balsamic vinegar

If you don’t have red potatoes, Yukon gold, Russet, and fingerling potatoes are all great varieties for roasting.

Step by step

  1. Start by preheating the oven to 450°F. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray.
  2. Next, in a large bowl, combine olive oil, garlic, rosemary, kosher salt, pepper, and red potatoes. Stir until everything is coated.
  3. Place the potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes or until fork tender.
  4. Pour balsamic vinegar evenly over the potatoes and bake for an additional 5 minutes.

Tips for best results

  • Cut the potatoes into even-sized pieces to ensure they cook evenly.
  • Don’t overcrowd the pan—spread the potatoes out so they roast, not steam.
  • Toss the potatoes halfway through cooking for even crispiness.
  • Use high-quality balsamic vinegar for a deeper taste.

Variations

If you want to try something different, try add different herbs like thyme or oregano for an earthy flavor. For a spicier version, sprinkle in a pinch of red pepper flakes or smoked paprika.

Serving suggestions

This is a super versatile side but here are some of my favorite meals to add these potatoes to:

Storage

Leftover potatoes can be stored well in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

To reheat, pop them in a hot oven for about 10 minutes to crisp them up again. Avoid microwaving if possible, as it can make them soggy.
