Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine potatoes and canola oil; season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Place potatoes in a single layer onto the prepared baking sheets.
Place into oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, until golden brown and crisp, stirring and rotating pans halfway through baking. Stir in garlic, thyme and rosemary during the last 3 minutes of cooking time.
Serve immediately, garnished with chives, if desired.
