Ingredients
- 5 medium russet potatoes about 2 pounds
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter cut into small pieces
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 4 sprigs fresh thyme plus more for garnish
- 4 sprigs fresh rosemary plus more for garnish
- 1 cup low-sodium vegetable broth or chicken broth
Instructions
- Peel the potatoes. Trim the ends to be flat, then cut each potato in half crosswise. You should now have ten flat potato rounds.
- Place the potatoes in a large bowl, cover with cold water, and let sit for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F and arrange the rack in the middle of the oven.
- Drain the potatoes, rinse with cold water, and pat dry with paper towels.
- Place them in a dry large bowl and season with the kosher salt, black pepper, paprika, and onion powder.
- Add two tablespoons of canola oil to a large cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil shimmers, add the potatoes cut-side down in a single layer. Cook until golden brown, about 6 to 7 minutes; flip and cook for five more minutes
- Next, add the garlic, butter, four sprigs of thyme, and four sprigs of rosemary to the pan. Stir and cook until the butter is foaming and just starting to brown 2 minutes.
- Add the broth, stir gently, and transfer the pan to the oven.
- Bake until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 30 to 35 minutes.
- Before serving, garnish with more fresh thyme and rosemary sprigs, drizzle with the pan juices, and sprinkle parsley on top.
