Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds new potatoes
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves fresh garlic cloves, minced
- 2 teaspoons fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
- 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Wash and scrub the new potatoes to remove any dirt, then pat them dry. If the potatoes are very large, cut them into halves or quarters to ensure even cooking.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter in the microwave or on the stovetop. Stir in the olive oil, minced garlic, thyme, rosemary, salt, and black pepper.
Place the potatoes in the slow cooker. Drizzle the butter and herb mixture over the potatoes, making sure they are evenly coated. Stir gently to combine.
Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on LOW for 4 hours or on HIGH for 2 hours, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
Once cooked, stir the potatoes gently to redistribute the butter and herbs. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Transfer the potatoes to a serving bowl and sprinkle with fresh parsley for garnish, if desired. Serve warm.
