Baked Garlic Butter Potatoes

Ingredients:

– 2 lbs baby potatoes, halved
– 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 tsp dried thyme
– 1 tsp dried rosemary
– 1/2 tsp salt
– 1/2 tsp black pepper
– 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

2. In a large bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

3. Add the halved baby potatoes to the bowl and toss to coat them evenly with the garlic butter mixture.

4. Spread the coated potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

5. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and tender, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking.

6. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley, if desired.

7. Serve immediately.

Notes:
1. For extra crispiness, broil the potatoes for the last 2-3 minutes of baking.
2. Use a mix of baby red and yellow potatoes for a colorful presentation.
3. These potatoes make a great side dish for grilled meats or roasted chicken.
