Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 lb (500g) baby potatoes scrubbed and cut into halves
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 6 cloves garlic peeled
- 2/3 cup chicken broth
- 3 tablespoons whipping cream
- 6 prigs thyme
- 1 pinch salt or to taste
- 1 pinch sugar
- 2 dashes cayenne pepper
Instructions
- Heat a skillet (preferably cast iron) over high heat. Once the skillet is fully heated, add the olive oil. Place the potatoes in the skillet, skin side up, and cook until they turn golden brown.
- Turn the potatoes over and cook the skin side until it turns brown. Push the potatoes to one side of the skillet, then add the butter and garlic. Sauté the garlic for 30 seconds.
- Add the chicken broth, whipping cream, and thyme. Turn the heat to low and simmer the potatoes until they are cooked through, about 10 minutes, turning them occasionally. Add salt, sugar, and cayenne pepper, stirring to mix well. Turn off the heat and serve immediately.
