Roasted Potatoes with Rosemary and Pearl Onions

A Smashing Roasted Potato Side Dish

Move over mashed potatoes! My smashed oven roasted potatoes with rosemary are gorgeous in a serving dish and make me feel all the gratitude feels when they mix with drips of my favorite gravy. Accented with onions and aromatic rosemary, these crispy, creamy potatoes bring all the Thanksgiving flavor to the table.

This easy side dish is a smart go to for easy weeknight dinner, and a delicious option if you’re meal planning on a budget. My family asks for them often, and I’ve found they’re one of the best side dishes for chicken, since I often roast a weeknight chicken and I can throw them in the oven together.

Best Roasted and Smashed Rosemary Potatoes

Roasted potatoes with rosemary is a classic, delicious combination. In this potato side dish, the onions caramelize adding a sweet flavor to each bite, and then finishes on a festive rosemary note that is 1o0% craveworthy.

The perfect crispy smashed potatoes are quite simple to make! Start by adding scrubbed, whole dutch baby potatoes and halved pearl onions to a sheet pan and drizzle them with olive oil. Give them a good toss with your hands, then sprinkle with rosemary, salt and pepper. Roast them for 40 minutes until they’re nice and brown and crispy on the outside. Last, once they’re cooled slightly, give them a good smash with the back of a wooden spoon.
