Golden, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, these garlic butter potatoes are pure comfort in every bite. A quick, simple side dish that steals the show.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds Yukon Gold Potatoes, sliced into ½ inch thick rounds
  • 5 tablespoons Unsalted Butter
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 4 Garlic Cloves, minced
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley, chopped
  • 1½ teaspoons Salt
  • ½ teaspoon Black Pepper


Instructions

  1. Fill a large pot with salted water and bring it to a boil over medium-high heat.
  2. Add sliced potatoes and cook for 8 to 10 minutes until just tender. Drain and steam dry for 5 minutes.
  3. In a large skillet, heat olive oil and 3 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute.
  4. Place potatoes in a single layer in the skillet. Cook undisturbed for 4 to 5 minutes until golden and crispy.

  6. Season with salt and pepper, sprinkle with parsley, and remove from heat.

Notes

  • Use waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold or red potatoes for best results.
  • Let boiled potatoes dry before frying for maximum crispness.
  • Top with cheese or herbs for extra flavor.
