Ingredients
- 4 medium-sized russet potatoes
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- Fresh herbs (like rosemary or thyme), for garnish
- Parmesan cheese, grated (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt and impurities. Pat them dry with a clean towel.
- Using a sharp knife, carefully make thin, even slices across the tops of each potato. Be sure not to cut all the way through—leave about 1/4 inch at the bottom so the potato holds together. You can place the potatoes between two wooden chopsticks to prevent cutting all the way through.
- In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined.
- Brush the mixture generously over each potato, ensuring that it seeps into the slices for enhanced flavor.
- Place the potatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes to an hour, or until they’re crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
- For an added touch, sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the potatoes during the last 10 minutes of cooking.
- Once done, remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh herbs before serving.
