Ingredients

• 2 lbs new potatoes
• 4 tbsp unsalted butter
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 3 cloves garlic
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley
• 1 tsp fresh thyme
• 1 tsp kosher salt
• 0.5 tsp ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Wash the new potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry. Leave the skins on for texture and flavor.

Step 2

Cut any large potatoes in half to ensure all pieces are approximately the same size for even cooking.

Step 3

Mince the garlic finely and chop the fresh parsley. Set both aside.

Step 4

In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter and olive oil together. The combination of butter and oil helps prevent burning while adding richness and flavor.

Step 5

Once the butter is melted and starts to foam, add the potatoes to the skillet in a single layer. Sprinkle with kosher salt and ground black pepper.

Step 6

Cook the potatoes undisturbed for 5-7 minutes, allowing them to develop a golden-brown crust on one side.

Step 7

Toss the potatoes gently using a spatula, ensuring all sides get evenly browned. Cook for another 12-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are fork-tender and crispy.

Step 8

In the last 2 minutes of cooking, reduce the heat to low and add the minced garlic and fresh thyme to the skillet. Stir to coat the potatoes and cook just until the garlic is fragrant, being careful not to let it burn.

Step 9

Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the potatoes with chopped fresh parsley.

Step 10

Serve immediately as a side dish, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
