Tuscan Roasted Potatoes made with olive oil, garlic, plus seasonings and herbs.
This delicious recipe for Tuscan Roasted Potatoes is one that my husband Jack and I brought back with us from our honeymoon. We spent a week after our wedding in the Tuscany region of Italy, attending the Toscana Saporita Cooking School – a magnificent trip of a lifetime! After a fabulous breakfast each morning, we had our daily cooking lesson – learning to prepare a traditional Italian dish or a new cooking technique. Lunch typically consisted of whatever foods we prepared that morning (along with plenty of amazing wines) and after a brief rest, our group would enjoy a local excursion for the afternoon before returning to a wonderful dinner prepared by our talented cooking instructors (oh yes – including more amazing wines!).
It was a fabulous week spent learning to cook new dishes, making new friends, and for us, exploring a new country. This recipe for Tuscan Roasted Potatoes was adapted from one of the recipes we came home with after our week at cooking school. It’s a simple and flavorful way to prepare roasted potatoes with olive oil, wine, garlic and a generous amount of seasonings and herbs. Not only have these Tuscan Roasted Potatoes become one of our favorite recipes, but it also reminds us of our wonderful honeymoon whenever we serve it!

Tuscan Roasted Potatoes
An easy and flavorful way to prepare roasted potatoes.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds new red potatoes, unpeeled and cut into 1 to 2 inch pieces
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil plus 2 tablespoons to brush the pan
- 1/3 cup white wine
- 2 tablespoons fresh garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Brush a sheet pan with two tablespoons of olive oil.
- Cut potatoes and put into a large enough bowl to mix. Add 1/4 cup of olive oil, white wine, garlic, salt, pepper, sage and rosemary. Toss all ingredients to coat potatoes.
- Pour onto prepared sheet pan and place in oven. Potatoes should be close but not touching to get proper browning.
- Roast for 25 minutes and remove from oven. Using a spatula, turn potatoes and return to oven.
- Cook for an additional 20-25 minutes or until potatoes cooked through and crispy. Cooking time will vary depending on accuracy of oven and size of potatoes.
- Remove from oven and adjust seasoning by adding more salt if needed and serve.

Notes
The trick to this recipe is to get the potatoes tender before the liquid evaporates and browned without burning the herbs. The final 10-15 minutes are crucial to the perfect potato. If needed, splash on a little more wine and/or olive oil.
Worked really well with Yukon potatoes and as a side dish for grilled sausages.
Thank you!
Perfect with grilled salmon! Very nice recipe!
Thanks Susan!
This recipe sounds amazing! I never thought of adding wine to potatoes!
Thanks Shari!
Any type of white wine. What do you prefer?
Hi Terri – We almost always cook with a Chardonnay – but a Pinio Grigio would also work well in this recipe!
Are those mushrooms (in the pic) with the roasted potatoes also?
You’re recipe makes no mention of them?
No – just red skinned potatoes! No mushrooms!
OK Think we’re going to tackle the Tuscan Roasted Potatoes to go with dinner tonight. Wish us luck!
Can’t wait to hear how you like them!!
