Garlic & Herb Smashed Potatoes

Garlic & Herb Smashed Potatoes



Prep Time: 10 Min

​Cook Time: 25 - 35 Min

 

1. Fill a large pot with cold water and add the potatoes, salt, and all the garlic cloves. Set to medium high and bring to a boil. Once boiled, continue boiling for roughly 15 minutes or until potatoes are fork tender. Strain and allow the potatoes to cool before smashing. (About 10 minutes)

 

1. Once potatoes have cooled, place them on a baking sheet and use the bottom of a glass or mason jar to gently flatten them allowing them to split. Careful not to smash them too hard or they’ll come apart.

 

1. In a small bowl, whisk together the EVOO, garlic, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper flakes, Italian seasoning, half the parsley and a pinch of salt and pepper. Brush the potatoes with the seasoned oil mixture on the top side.

 

1. Begin heating a large frying pan set to medium heat. Once heated, place potatoes oiled side down in the pan. Sear for 4 – 5 minutes until nice and brown. Brush the potatoes with the oiled mixture again before flipping to sear the other side. Sprinkle them generously with sea salt. Cook another 3 – 4 minutes until potatoes are nice and crispy. Transfer them to a plate lined with paper towel and continue frying until all potatoes are cooked.

 

1. Sprinkle with remaining parsley and serve. ENJOY!
