How to make Cajun Roasted Potatoes

Three ingredients are all you need!! What?? Yup, that is it! Do you have a favorite Cajun spice already? We actually have many that we enjoy.

A Cajun seasoning shouldn’t be crazy hot but zesty, spicy, and savory. It should have the right amount of cayenne pepper, garlic salt, paprika, pepper, and onion powder. It may or may not have herbs like oregano and thyme.

How do you Make Roast Potatoes Crispy?

To make your Little Potatoes crispy you just need to follow a few simple steps.

Make sure you potatoes are dry, Little Potatoes come pre-washed to no need to wash or dry them.
