Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Wash and peel potatoes; then, trim off ends. Cut the potatoes into even 2-inch slices, about 12 slices total depending on the size of the potato. Place the slices in a bowl of cold water to soak for about 15 minutes.

  4. Preheat oven to 400°F.

  6. Add the garlic to the pan and cook for 1 minute.
  7. Add rosemary sprigs, chicken stock, and the remaining 6 tablespoons of butter (cut into smaller pats). Continue cooking until the butter is melted.
  8. Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook for 30 minutes, or until potatoes are fork-tender.
  9. Spoon the sauce over the cooked potatoes and serve warm. Salt and pepper to taste.
