Remove the hot pan from the oven. (Add a layer of parchment paper to the pan to help with clean up if desired.) Spread the potatoes on the hot pan in a single layer.

Notes
For the crispiest potatoes, make sure they're completely dry before tossing them with oil.
Try different seasonings and experiment with different flavors!
Allow leftovers to cool completely before storing them in an airtight container. Reheat in the oven (400 degrees F for about 10 minutes) or air fryer (400 degrees F for 4-5 minutes) to return them to their former crispy glory!
