Start by scrubbing your Yukon Gold potatoes under cold water to remove any dirt. After washing, cut them into bite-sized pieces, ensuring they’re uniform in size for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cut potatoes with the extra virgin olive oil, fine sea salt, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and black pepper. Toss everything together until the potatoes are evenly coated with the oil and seasonings.
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3-5 minutes. This step ensures that your potatoes will start cooking immediately and helps achieve that crispy exterior.
Place the seasoned potatoes in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook them for about 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking. Keep an eye on them towards the end to achieve your desired level of crispiness.
Once they are golden brown and crispy, remove the potatoes from the air fryer. Transfer them to a serving dish and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley, if desired. Enjoy your Crispy Air Fryer Potatoes hot!
