Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

  3. Spread the seasoned potatoes on the baking sheet in a single layer and roast for 30-35 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  4. While potatoes roast, heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the ground beef or turkey for 7-8 minutes until browned.
