Roasted Red Potatoes

Looking for an easy way to make roasted red potatoes? These honey-roasted red potatoes are a sweet twist on a classic side dish! They’re first boiled, then roasted to crispy, golden perfection, and finished with a drizzle of honey butter Dijon sauce, making the most flavorful potato side to serve with your favorite mains!

I’ll be honest, I always struggle to come up with side dishes for dinner. I’m not sure why! But these roasted red potatoes are perfectly tender with just the right mix of flavors, and I promise you won’t regret making them… or going back for seconds.

You’d think a side would be easier than a main dish, but for me, that’s not the case. The good news? These potatoes are simple, lightly seasoned, and pair easily with just about any meal.

Ingredients For Oven Roasted Red Potatoes

If you’re trying to come up with something to leave your guests in awe, these honey-roasted red potatoes are definitely the dish!

• Red Potatoes: The star of the dish! Creamy, tender, and perfect for crisping up in the oven.
• Butter: Adds richness and helps create that irresistible golden finish.
• Honey: Brings a touch of natural sweetness to balance the savory flavors.
• Ground Mustard: Gives a subtle vinegar tang and depth to the honey butter sauce.
• Salt: Enhances all the flavors and keeps the potatoes from tasting flat.
• Black Pepper: Adds a little warmth and gentle spice.
• Oil: Helps the potatoes crisp up beautifully while roasting. Olive Oil or a Neutral Oil would work great here!
• Flaked Sea Salt: The finishing touch to enhance the flavor.

Can I Use Other Varieties of Potatoes?

You don’t have to stick with red potatoes for this recipe, though they’re pretty perfect with their creamy centers and thin, crispy skins. If a bag of reds isn’t in your pantry, try swapping in Yukon Gold Potatoes (they’re buttery and golden with a rich flavor) or even Russet potatoes (fluffier inside with a bit of a bite once roasted).

Just know that each type of potato has a different starch level, which means the texture will change slightly, but honestly, you can’t go wrong. Crispy roasted potatoes of any kind are always a win in my book!

Can I Add Other Seasonings?

Absolutely! Think of this recipe as your crispy, fluffy canvas. This red skin potatoes recipe is amazing as-is, but if you’re in the mood to play around, go for it! You can keep it simple with garlic powder or fresh

Fresh green beans are tossed with Sriracha, honey, soy sauce, and sesame oil and then roasted to hot, crisp perfection to create these immensely snackable spicy green beans.

Spicy Green Beans

This green beans inspired by one of our long-time favorite broccoli recipes, and this was an excellent idea, let me tell you. If you’re bored with the usual green beans you make, give these a try!

The awesomeness of these spicy green beans is in the glaze. It’s a simple combination of soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, and of course, a squeeze of Sriracha. If you aren’t a fan of much heat, go easy on the hot sauce. If you’re like my boys, make it a generous squeeze and enjoy the sweet-heat.

The glaze here hits every note: salty, savory, sweet, and spicy. As the beans roast, they’ll develop a little char on their edges while soaking up all that sauce, making them impossible to resist.

They’re bold enough to stand out next to the main dish, but I’m telling you from personal experience, they’re irresistible on their own, straight off the pan. I have to practice some serious restraint to make sure there will be enough left to serve with our meal whenever I make these.

Sweet and Spicy Green Beans

I have served these green beans with pan fried chicken and roasted sweet potato bites. I’ve also served them with these garlic mashed potatoes and the barbecue bacon meatloaf that my kids adore.

There just isn’t a wrong way to serve these sweet and spicy green beans. And I need to make another batch soon, since

This garlicky, orange shrimp packs a whole lot of awesome flavor with little more than some orange juice, fresh garlic, and a dash of spices.

Orange Shrimp

Orange garlic shrimp has been one of our favorite shrimp recipes for so long; I went years without making a different shrimp dish after I made it the first time about 15 years ago.

It seemed as if, whenever I bought shrimp, planning to try a new recipe, I would change my mind at the last minute and make this orange shrimp instead. It really is fantastic, and my entire family loves it. When they were younger, my kids would literally jump up and down with excitement when they saw this for dinner.

Served over this rice pilaf or with lemon butter pasta, this is a meal that we all enjoy. The shrimp also makes a mouthwatering appetizer, and I’ll admit it is the reason I haven’t ordered shrimp from a restaurant in years.

In the years since I first shared this here on the blog, I’ve learned to appreciate shrimp in countless other ways as well. However, we still return to this family favorite several times a year.

Smoked salmon pasta feels like spring or summer in a bowl. It’s light and lemony with a great balance of flavors. The lemon cuts through the creaminess, the salmon brings that slightly smoky depth, and the pine nuts add just the right crunch.
