Delicious Smashed Potatoes Recipes

CRISPY SMASHED POTATOES WITH LIME-INFUSED OIL

Steps:

• Combine the olive oil and herbs in a food processor and process until the herbs are minced. Let stand 10 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh strainer into a bowl. (If the oil still has fine bits of herbs, strain again through a coffee filter.) Whisk in the lime juice. Set aside until ready to use.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Place the potatoes in a saucepan with salted water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook until a knife can easily pierce into the center, 12 to 15 minutes. Drain, then place on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Use the bottom of a glass to smash the potatoes. Drizzle with the infused oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake until crispy, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Sprinkle with more salt before serving and garnish with lime wedges and more herbs, if desired.

Using a flat dry measuring cup or glass, carefully smash the potatoes until flattened but still in one piece. Top with olive oil, garlic and thyme. Place into oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp. Serve immediately.
