1. Begin by preheating your oven to a robust 400°F (200°C). As it heats, lightly coat a large baking sheet with a non-stick cooking spray or a thin layer of light olive oil to prevent sticking and encourage a golden crust.
2. In a spacious mixing bowl, combine the light olive oil, a generous pinch of kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, the finely minced garlic, and the dried rosemary. Whisk these ingredients together until well blended, creating a fragrant coating for your potatoes.
3. Add the thinly sliced Russet potatoes to the bowl with the aromatic oil mixture. Gently toss the potato slices, ensuring each piece is thoroughly coated with the flavorful blend. The goal is an even distribution of seasoning and oil.
4. Carefully arrange the seasoned potato slices on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. For an attractive presentation and even cooking, you can slightly overlap them in a circular pattern, aiming for an approximate 9-inch diameter in the center of the sheet. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the potatoes are beautifully golden brown and fork-tender with irresistibly crispy edges. Flip them halfway through baking for uniform crispness.
5. Once perfectly cooked, remove the crispy potatoes from the oven. Garnish with a few fresh rosemary sprigs for an added touch of freshness and aroma before serving immediately. These make a wonderful accompaniment to any meal.
