Who doesn’t love potatoes- roasted, mashed, French fries, even boiled with butter and dill?! This recipe is my new favorite. The potatoes are started on the stove, giving them a delicious crust and finished in the oven where they soak up the chicken stock and butter. They are delicious and I can’t think of a protein they wouldn’t compliment.
Look at how golden brown and caramelized the tops of these potatoes are. The inside is more like a mashed potato than a roasted potato. I can't stress how good these are!
Not only does parsley add a wonderful flavor, but it adds a freshness to any dish. I always have it on hand to add to a dish.
Melting Potatoes
Recipe details
Ingredients
INGREDIENTS
- 4 Russet or Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1” slices
- Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
- 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 2 sprigs fresh thyme or rosemary
- 2 cloves garlic, smashed
- Flaky salt and parsley, to garnish
Instructions
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Season both sides of the potatoes generously with Kosher salt and pepper.
- Heat your large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil and 4 tablespoons of the butter.
- Place potatoes, cut-side down and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Flip the potatoes and add the broth, herbs and garlic around the potatoes. Divide the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter into small pieces and dot the tops of the potatoes with the butter.
- Place the pan into the oven and cook for 25-30 minutes until potatoes are tender. Serve the potatoes from the pan or place on a platter with sea salt and parsley sprinkled on top.
Tips
- Avoid using a non-stick pan for this recipe. Stainless steel or cast iron is my preference so the potatoes develop that crust.
- The pan needs to go from the stove to the oven, so make sure the pan can handle that.
