Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons Paprika
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Using a sharp knife, slice each potato thinly, stopping about 1/4 inch from the bottom to keep the slices connected at the base. Place the potatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Finely chop the fresh parsley and mince the garlic. Add both to the melted butter, stirring well. Remove from heat.
Drizzle the potatoes with olive oil, ensuring the oil seeps between the slices. Generously brush the parsley butter over the top and in between the slices of each potato.
Sprinkle the potatoes with salt, black pepper, and paprika for flavor and a hint of color.
Bake the potatoes in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes or until the edges are crispy and golden, and the centers are tender. Check doneness by inserting a fork into the thickest part of the potato.
When ready, remove the potatoes from the oven. Optionally, brush with additional parsley butter before serving.
Serve warm as a delicious side dish or a light main course.
