Season the potatoes with seasoned salt, chili powder, basil, cumin, and black pepper.

Roast until the bottoms of the potatoes are crispy and golden, about 20 minutes.

Step 13

Flip the potatoes with a rubber spatula.

Step 14

Bake until the other side is golden and crisp, about 20 minutes.

Step 15

Serve immediately.
