Not only are they potatoes, which are (in my opinion) the ultimate comfort food, they also have delicious flavors. And the best part...
They are so soft they just melt in your mouth. The outside is nice and crispy, but you bite into it and it's just so smooth and just perfect.
Just thinking about them makes my mouth water.
Anyone want to make me some potatoes?
Melting Roasted Potatoes
INGREDIENTS
- 3 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled
- 4 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme (or 1 tablespoon fresh)
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- 2 garlic cloves, finely minced
DIRECTIONS
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F, making sure one of the oven racks is in the upper-middle position. Square the ends off the potatoes by cutting off the rounded edges (you don't have to chop off a lot, but you want the ends flat) and then cutting the potatoes into about 1-inch thick slices.
- In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with the butter, thyme, salt and pepper. Place the potatoes in a single layer in a 9X13-inch ceramic or metal baking dish (don't use glass as it can shatter when adding the chicken broth later).
- Roast the potatoes for 20-22 minutes, until the bottoms are browning around the edges. Remove the baking pan from the oven and flip the potatoes with a flat spatula. Return to the oven and roast for another 15 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the oven, flip the potatoes again and add the chicken broth and garlic. Roast once more (last time, promise) until the potatoes are tender and the sauce has reduced just slightly, about 15 minutes.
- Serve the potatoes with the sauce drizzled over the top.
