Ingredients
Scale
Potatoes
- 2 lbs baby potatoes
Garlic Butter Mixture
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 tbsp butter, melted
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp dried rosemary
Garnish
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Prep Potatoes: Wash and scrub the baby potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt or impurities. Pat them completely dry with paper towels to ensure the coating sticks well.
- Cut Potatoes: Cut each baby potato in half lengthwise to create flat surfaces. This helps achieve a golden, crispy crust during roasting.
- Make Garlic Butter: In a large bowl, mix together melted butter, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and dried rosemary until well combined and fragrant.
- Coat Potatoes: Add the halved potatoes to the bowl and toss thoroughly to ensure each piece is evenly coated with the garlic butter mixture.
- Arrange and Bake: Spread the potatoes cut-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 35-45 minutes until golden brown and crispy on the outside.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove the potatoes from the oven and immediately sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley. Serve hot to enjoy the crispy texture and rich garlic butter flavor.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, avoid overcrowding the baking sheet to allow proper air circulation.
- You can substitute fresh rosemary for dried if available; use about 1 tablespoon fresh chopped.
- Make sure the potatoes are dry before coating to prevent sogginess.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated in the oven to maintain crispiness.
