Garlic Herb Hasselback Potatoes
Servings 8
Ingredients
- 6 medium-sized russet potatoes
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 2-3 tablespoons fresh herbs rosemary, thyme, and/or parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Place a potato between two chopsticks or wooden spoons to act as a stopper to prevent cutting all the way through.
- Carefully make thin, parallel cuts across each potato, ensuring not to slice all the way through, leaving the bottom intact.
- In a bowl, mix the melted butter, minced garlic, chopped herbs, salt, and pepper.
- Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and brush them generously with the herb-garlic butter mixture, ensuring the flavors get between the slices.
- Bake for about 50-60 minutes until the edges are crispy, and the insides are tender. Baste the potatoes with the remaining butter mixture halfway through the cooking process.
- Once done, remove the potatoes from the oven, sprinkle with additional fresh herbs if desired, and serve hot.
