Ingredients

16 ounces red new potatoes
3 to 5 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Herbed Sour Cream, recipe follows

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Using a wooden spoon as a cradle, place each potato in the spoon and make several parallel slits into each potato top making sure not to slice completely through. Place 3 garlic slices between slits at the crown of each potato. Toss in a medium bowl with butter and olive oil. Place on a baking sheet and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Bake until tops are crispy and potatoes are cooked through, about 1 hour. Transfer to a platter and top with Herbed Sour Cream.

Herbed Sour Cream:

1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Combine ingredients in a small bowl. Season, to taste, and refrigerate until use.

Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Sunny...thank you for sharing this. I had my cousin and her husband along with my mother over for dinner. They all are... fabulous cooks. I needed something that was unique and flavorful to compliment the grilled fillets and heirloom tomato salad. Everyone raved about the potatoes. The kitchen smelled like a slice of heaven. Read more

Simple and Savory
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made these as a side dish to a lobster and steak dinner. They were a great hit with my mother in law. I also cut them all... the way through and baked them at 350 for about 20 minutes, with the sour cream as a dip and they make amazing potato chips. My husband loves them. Read more
