Description

Meltt in Your Mouth Potatoes are a perfect side dish, featuring soft, tender Yukon Gold potatoes infused with butter, herbs, and garlic. With a creamy texture and rich flavors, these potatoes are sure to become a family favorite.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 3 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled
  • 6 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 2โ€“3 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400ยฐF (200ยฐC) and lightly grease a baking dish.
  2. Cut the peeled Yukon Gold potatoes into 1-inch cubes and place them in the prepared baking dish.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the melted butter, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and pepper. Pour this mixture over the potatoes and toss them to coat evenly.
  4. Pour the chicken broth into the baking dish around the potatoes and add the crushed garlic cloves.
  5. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
  6. Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 15 minutes to allow the potatoes to crisp up slightly and absorb the remaining liquid.
  7. Once done, remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can sprinkle some Parmesan cheese over the potatoes during the last 10 minutes of baking.
  • If you prefer a more creamy texture, mash the potatoes lightly with a fork before serving.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for 3-4 days in the refrigerator.
