Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds small Yukon Gold or baby potatoes, halved
- 2 tablespoons olive oil

- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 tablespoon fresh chopped rosemary (or 1 teaspoon dried)
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 5 minutes. Pat the halved potatoes dry with a clean towel.
- Toss potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and rosemary until evenly coated.
- Place potatoes cut-side down in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
