Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Wash and dry the medium russet potatoes.
- With a sharp knife, carefully slice the potatoes into thin rounds, about 1/4 inch thick, leaving the bottom intact.
- In a small bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, dried rosemary, dried thyme, and add salt and pepper to taste.
- Place the sliced potatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Generously coat each potato slice with the olive oil mixture.
Baking
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
- If using, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the potatoes during the last 5 minutes of baking.
- Once finished, remove from the oven and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
Notes
Be cautious not to cut through the bottom of the potatoes while slicing. Letting the oil, garlic, and herbs sit together allows flavors to meld beautifully.
