Your side dish just got a whole lot sexier.

made the picture really small because it was before I got proper circular cutters. but if Kristen Kish ever comes across my blog I’m sure she would understand, my hands (and purse strings) were tied!

INGREDIENTS:

  • yukon gold potatoes
  • butter
  • thyme
  • chicken broth (or buillion)
  • garlic

STEP 1: peel potatoes and cut into even cylinders

STEP 2: heat a tablespoon of oil on an oven safe pan (or dutch oven) over medium heat and preheat oven to 400 degrees

STEP 3: pat dry potatoes and place down flat on pan and leave for several minutes until golden brown

STEP 4: once crisped up, flip potatoes so other flat side can get golden

STEP 5: add sprigs of thyme and garlic cloves to pan

STEP 6: add butter and broth to pan; liquid half way up potatoes

STEP 7: transfer oven safe pan to the oven (see why we did that)

STEP 8: cook until broth is 75% absorbed or potatoes are fork tender

STEP 9: take pan out and baste remaining juices over potatoes

STEP 10: plate and sprinkle thyme over top for the snap

STEP 11: enjoy your new favorite (or 3rd fave) way to eat potatoes
