Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Baby potatoes
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves (minced)
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 pieces Your choice of meat (e.g., chicken breast, steak, or pork chops)
- to taste Your favorite marinade or seasoning blend for meat
Instructions
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and cut them in half. Keep them uniform in size for even cooking.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork. Drain the potatoes and set aside.
Season your choice of meat with your favorite marinade or seasoning blend. Let the meat marinate while preparing the potatoes.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and butter. Once the butter has melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the cooked potatoes to the skillet and toss to coat them in the garlic butter. Let the potatoes cook for 5-7 minutes until they develop a golden-brown crust. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Season the potatoes with salt and black pepper to taste. Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the potatoes and toss once more. Remove from heat and cover loosely to keep warm.
While the potatoes are warming, preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook your seasoned meat for 4-6 minutes per side, depending on the type and thickness of the meat, until fully cooked and juices run clear. Use a meat thermometer to check doneness if needed (e.g., 165°F for chicken, 145°F for pork with a 3-minute rest, 135°F for medium-rare steak).
Let the grilled meat rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve the warm garlic potatoes alongside the grilled meat. Garnish the dish with additional parsley if desired.
