Whether you're hosting a backyard barbecue or looking for a simple yet tasty addition to your weeknight dinners, these baby potatoes are the perfect choice.

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your outdoor barbecue grill or indoor oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the Potatoes:
- Wash the potatoes thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt.
- Cut each potato into halves or quarters, depending on their size, ensuring the pieces are relatively uniform for even cooking.

3. Season the Potatoes:
- Place the potato pieces in a large mixing bowl.
- Lightly spray the potatoes with the cooking spray oil, making sure to coat them evenly.
- Sprinkle the teaspoon of salt over the potatoes and toss well to make sure they are evenly seasoned.

4. Roasting the Potatoes:
- If using a barbecue grill, place a sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil on the grill and spray with a bit of cooking spray to prevent sticking, or use a grill basket.
- Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on the foil or in the basket.
- Close the grill lid and cook for about 25-30 minutes, turning them occasionally with tongs to ensure they get evenly roasted on all sides.

*- Alternatively, if using an oven:*
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil lightly sprayed with oil, and spread the potatoes in a single layer.
- Roast in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crisp on the outside and tender on the inside.
5. Serving:
- Remove the potatoes from the grill or oven and let them cool slightly.
- Serve hot as a delicious side dish with your favorite main course.

Tips:

- Choose baby potatoes of similar size to ensure even cooking.

- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) for optimal roasting conditions.

- Toss the potatoes in oil and salt ensuring they are evenly coated.

- Use a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking and aid in easy cleanup.

- Roast the potatoes in the center of the oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.

- Halfway through roasting, stir the potatoes to ensure they cook evenly on all sides.

- Allow the potatoes to cool slightly before serving to enhance their flavor and texture.

- Experiment with additional spices like paprika, garlic powder, or rosemary for added flavor.

With just a few simple ingredients and minimal prep time, barbecue-roasted baby potatoes are an effortless way to elevate any meal.
