Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Spray large shallow roasting pan (do not use glass baking dish or potatoes will not brown) with nonstick cooking spray.
2. Add potatoes and onions to pan; drizzle with oil. Combine basil, paprika, salt, rosemary and pepper in small bowl; mix well. Sprinkle over potatoes and onions; toss well to coat lightly with oil and seasonings.
3. Bake 20 minutes; toss well. Continue baking 15 to 20 minutes or until potatoes are browned and tender.

To peel pearl onions, cut off the stem end from each onion and plunge the onions into boiling water for 2 minutes; rinse onions in cold water. The skins will slip off.
