Serving Size and Yield

This recipe serves approximately 4 people.

Preparation and Cooking Time

Preparation Time: 15 minutes

Cooking Time: 45 minutes

Total Time: 1 hour

Ingredients

4 medium-sized potatoes
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash the potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry.
Slice the potatoes thinly, about 1/8 inch apart, making sure not to cut all the way through. You can place a wooden spoon on either side of the potato to prevent cutting through.
Mix the olive oil, minced garlic, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
Brush the olive oil mixture generously over the potatoes, ensuring it gets between the slices.
Place the potatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes or until the potatoes are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Additional Notes

For a cheesy flavor, sprinkle nutritional yeast over the potatoes before baking. You can also add a pinch of smoked paprika for a smoky taste. If you prefer a spicier version, add a dash of cayenne pepper to the olive oil mixture.
