Wash and scrub the baby potatoes thoroughly. If the potatoes are large, cut them into bite-sized pieces; otherwise, leave them whole.
Place the potatoes in a pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook for about 10 minutes, or until they are fork-tender but not falling apart. Drain the water and set the potatoes aside.
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil and butter. Allow the butter to melt completely.
Once the butter is melted and starts to sizzle, add the minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the garlic is fragrant but not browned.
Add the cooked potatoes to the skillet. Spread them out into a single layer and season with salt and black pepper.
Cook the potatoes over medium-high heat for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until they develop a golden-brown crust on all sides.
Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the potatoes and give them a final toss to coat evenly.
Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the sauteed garlic potatoes to a serving dish. Serve warm as a side dish for any meal.
