Hasselback Potatoes with Garlic Herb Butter are crispy, thinly sliced potatoes roasted to golden perfection and infused with a rich, aromatic garlic herb butter, creating a visually stunning and flavorful side dish.

Ingredients

  1. 4 medium-large russet or Yukon Gold potatoes
    4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
    3 cloves garlic, minced
    1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped
    1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme)
    Salt, to taste
    Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
    Optional: grated Parmesan cheese for topping

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  1. Carefully slice each potato crosswise into thin slices about 1/8 inch apart, stopping about 1/4 inch from the bottom to keep the potato intact.
  2. In a small bowl, combine softened butter, minced garlic, parsley, thyme, salt, and pepper.
  3. Place potatoes on the baking sheet and brush generously with garlic herb butter, making sure to get some butter between the slices.
  4. Bake for 40-50 minutes, brushing with more garlic herb butter every 15 minutes, until golden, crispy on edges, and tender inside.
  5. Optional: sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over potatoes during the last 10 minutes of baking.
  6. Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  1. Use rosemary or oregano instead of thyme for different herbal notes.
  2. Add smoked paprika or chili flakes for a spicy kick.
  3. Substitute butter with olive oil for a dairy-free option.
  4. Top with c sautéed mushrooms for extra flavor.
  5. Drizzle with lemon juice or garlic aioli before serving for freshness.
  6. Store leftovers in an airtight container in fridge for up to 3 days.
  7. Reheat in oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes to maintain crispiness.
