Learned a few things on the way on this recipe.

Cooking for 8, I used 3 lbs. Also to retain flavor, I always steam red potatoes rather than boil, but I cooked to same doneness as Rachael's recipe - fork tender. But when you then pan-fry them, they got mushy.

3 lbs of potatoes was too many for even my 18" pan. As a result I didn't get good pan contact, resulting in less browning, more turning, and more steaming. Tip- use the biggest pan you have, and turn very infrequently- the recipe does say this- to promote browning. And don't use more than 2 lbs.

Add herbs at the last minute. Sooner and the fresh thyme won't hold up in the pan. Like others, I added garlic for extra flavor- Yum-O. Don't be afraid of the salt, you need a good amount to bring out the red potato flavor, otherwise it's bland. Pepper, not so much.

I'll stick to 2lbs next time, and steam the potatoes to not-quite-done so they will hold up to the pan frying method at the end.

Is a good recipe but I think that it need more flavor like a garlic clove with the butter/oil mixture. Try to use exactly the type of potatoes that the recipe present.

A great way to have "roasted potatoes" without turning on the oven. Crispy outside, tender inside. These were a nice change from my regular baked or mashed potatoes. I finished them with parsley.

This recipe was super easy and absolutely delish! Instead of using thyme I used fresh dill. My boyfriend who is rediculously picky really enjoyed the dish. I highly recommend this recipe (with dill!

Quick, easy. So far I have made them with baked chicken and meatloaf. So much better than eating mashed potatoes all the time!!

I love red skin potatoes, next time I make this dish I won't put the entire amount of thyme that the recipe calls for. Will make this dish again.

I LOVE potatoes so I am always looking for a new recipe. This was fast and very tasty. I got to use my fresh tyme and some of the large bag of red potatoes my husband picked up at Costco. Both my daughter & husband loved the potatoes. My daughter who is not a big eater had a couple of helpings.

This was such a delicious and easy recipe. I served it with a tri-tip roast and everyone really enjoyed it. I love the flavor of the fresh Thyme! I would not change a thing!
