Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds small yellow potatoes I used Melissa's Pee-Wee potatoes
  • 5 garlic cloves crushed
  • 3 sprigs fresh thyme
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil I use California Olive Ranch
  • kosher salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  • Add the potatoes to a large pot and cover with cold water. Season generously with salt and bring the potatoes to a boil. Cook the potatoes until fork tender, approximately 20 minutes depending on their size.
  • Drain the potatoes and transfer to a large skillet or cast iron pan. Gently press down on each potato to smash them being careful not to go all the way through. Place the garlic and thyme on top of the potatoes and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Roast the potatoes in the oven for approximately 30-40 minutes being sure to toss the potatoes with an oven proof spatula every 10-15 minutes.
  • Serve immediately.
