Coating the Potatoes
- Toss the prepared potatoes in the glaze until completely coated.
Roasting
- Spread the glazed potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Notes
Adjust the heat by modifying the amount of Sriracha. For crispier potatoes, broil for the last couple of minutes. Allow them to rest for a few minutes after roasting for extra crispiness.
