This recipe was simple and good. I think it probably needs a minute more on each side; it was completely rare in the middle for us. Also, I do wish the potatoes were a little softer. I put them in the oven at 400 for a few minutes while I was preparing the roast, in addition to the time under the broiler, but they still could have used about 10 more minutes in the oven. The flavors of salt, pepper, and herbs were excellent and simple!
