Garlic & Herbs Smashed Potatoes
These Garlic & Herbs Smashed Potatoes are the perfect Game Day snack. With just the right amount of crunch on the outside and fluffiness on the inside.
Ingredients
- 2lbs of Yellow Potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive Oil
- 5 Cloves of finely minced Garlic
- 1/2 Tablespoon finely minced Fresh Rosemary
- 1/2 Tablespoon finely minced Fresh Thyme Leaves
- Salt & Pepper (Flavored to Taste)
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 450 degrees F. and grease a baking pan with cooking spray.
- Boil water in a large pot. Wash your potatoes and place them in the pot of boiling water. After 15-30 minutes, or until tender, take the potatoes out of the pot and place them in the baking sheet to let them cool.
- While your potatoes are cooling or cooking, grab a small bowl and mix the oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper until uniform, and set aside for now.
- Spread your potatoes evenly on your baking sheet. Using a potato masher, press down on the potatoes to “smash” them until they are about 1/2 inch thick. Press down on them slowly so they don’t break. Spread your olive oil mixture over the potatoes evenly. Try to cover the entire surface of every potato.
- Place the potatoes in the oven for 20 minutes (or until they are crispy golden brown)
- Take your potatoes out of the oven and serve them with dipping sauces of your choice!
