Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 1/2 lbs potato scrubbed well, small, yellow or red
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
  • 2 tablespoons butter melted
  • salt for seasoning potatoes, Kosher salt
  • black pepper for seasoning potatoes, Kosher salt
  • Parmesan Cheese optional toppings, freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • chives optional toppings, freshly grated parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Add potatoes to a large pot and cover with water. Season generously with salt (about 1 tablespoon) and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce to medium heat and cook uncovered for 15 to 20 minutes or until potatoes are fork tender. Larger potatoes might take a little longer. Drain the potatoes and let cool for 5 minutes.
  2. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Brush a large baking sheet evenly with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
  3. Place potatoes on the greased baking sheet. Use the bottom of a jar or glass, a fork, or a potato masher to gently press down on the potatoes until they are smashed, but still in one piece. You want them to hold together, the potatoes should be about 1/2-inch thick.
  4. Drizzle or brush the potatoes evenly with olive oil and melted butter. Season generously with salt and pepper.
  5. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the potatoes are crispy. You don’t need to flip the potatoes. Serve warm with Parmesan cheese and chives, if desired.
