Easy Ranch Potatoes
From the recipe collection of Tara Ippolito
These easy ranch potatoes are a delicious side dish for any occasion.
I’ve made these potatoes for everything from busy weekday dinners to holiday meals.
They’re incredibly versatile, pairing well with just about anything, and couldn’t be easier to make.
I don’t even peel my potatoes, although you certainly can if you prefer.
All I need to do is chop them up, toss them in oil and ranch seasoning, and pop them into the oven.
It doesn’t get much easier than that.
The ranch packet gives the potatoes so much incredible flavor that there’s no need to add anything else.
My family and friends love when I serve this to them for any occasion.
I hope you give this recipe a try. I know that if you do you’ll love it just as much as my family and I do.
Fast. Simple. Delicious.

What kind of potatoes should I use?
This recipe is wonderful because it can be made with many different kinds of potatoes.
Any yellow or red potato will do.
If you’d like to spare yourself from too much chopping, halved baby potatoes are a great choice, too.
Feel free to either peel the potatoes or not also. Either way works so it’s all about what you prefer.
Just keep in mind you may have to increase or decrease cook time depending on how big or small you choose to chop the potatoes.
Can these easy ranch potatoes be made in the air fryer?
Yes, these ranch potatoes can absolutely be made in the air fryer.
Just set the oven to 400°F and bake for about 15-20 minutes, depending on the size of the potatoes.
Shake the air fryer basket halfway through the cooking time to ensure the potatoes come out nice and crispy.

Easy ranch potatoes ingredients
- Potatoes (white or yellow), cleaned and cut into half inch pieces
- Extra virgin olive oil
- Dry ranch seasoning packet
- Parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
First, place a baking sheet into the oven while it preheats to 400°F.
Now, in a large bowl, toss the diced potatoes with extra virgin olive oil and the ranch seasoning packet.
Then, carefully place the potatoes on the hot baking sheet, spreading them into a single layer. Preheating the baking sheet helps ensure they become nice and crispy.
Next, bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are crispy and fully cooked. I recommend tossing them with a spatula halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Finally, let them cool slightly and serve warm with parsley for garnish (optional). Enjoy.

No they’re right onto the baking sheet. The baking sheets has little dots on it but it’s just a plain baking sheet

The potatoes are on a rack of some sort, not straight on a baking sheet
