salt To taste.
pepper To taste.
fresh parsley For garnish (optional).

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Rinse the baby potatoes under cold water and pat them dry. Cut the potatoes in half or quarters for even cooking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the ranch seasoning mix, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt and pepper to taste.
Add the olive oil to the seasoning mixture and stir well.
Toss the prepared potato pieces in the seasoned olive oil until fully coated.
Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Roast the potatoes in the oven for 30-35 minutes, until golden brown.
Stir the potatoes halfway through cooking for even browning.
Check for doneness; they should be fork-tender with a crispy exterior.
Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve warm.

For evenly cooked potatoes, try to cut them into similar sizes.
