Ingredients
Scale
4 medium-sized potatoes
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh herbs (such as rosemary or thyme) for garnish
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash and dry the potatoes thoroughly.
Using a sharp knife, make thin slices across the top of each potato, being careful not to cut all the way through.
Place the potatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter and olive oil together, then stir in the minced garlic.
Brush the garlic butter mixture over the potatoes, making sure to get it in between the slices.
Season with salt and pepper.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-60 minutes, or until the potatoes are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Garnish with fresh herbs before serving.
Notes
For extra flavor, you can add cheese or breadcrumbs in between the slices before baking.
Make sure to use a sharp knife for even slicing.
These potatoes pair well with a variety of main dishes.
