Garlic Herb Hasselback Potatoes with Rosemary and Thyme ingredients

  • 6 medium-large Russet potatoes
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic cloves
  • 1 tbsp fresh rosemary
  • 1 tbsp fresh thyme
  • 1.5 tsp salt
  • 0.75 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley

How to make Garlic Herb Hasselback Potatoes with Rosemary and Thyme

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
  2. Wash and scrub the 6 medium-large Russet potatoes thoroughly. To create the hasselback slices, place each potato between two wooden spoon handles or chopsticks; this prevents you from cutting all the way through the potato.
  3. Carefully make thin, even slices (about 1/8-inch apart) across the top of each potato, stopping just short of cutting through the bottom. This creates the accordion-like effect.
  4. In a small bowl, combine 4 tablespoons melted unsalted butter, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 4 minced garlic cloves, 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh rosemary, and 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh thyme. Season with 1.5 teaspoons salt and 0.75 teaspoon black pepper, mixing well.
  5. Place the sliced potatoes on the prepared baking sheet. Generously brush each potato with about half of the herb butter mixture, ensuring some gets into the cuts. This initial coating will help them crisp and absorb flavor.
  6. Bake for 50-60 minutes, basting with the remaining herb butter mixture every 15-20 minutes. The potatoes are done when they are fork-tender in the center and the edges of the slices are golden brown and crispy. The cooking time will vary depending on the size of the potatoes.
  7. For extra crispness, you can increase the oven temperature to 425°F (220°C) for the last 10 minutes of baking, or briefly broil them (watching carefully to prevent burning).
  8. Remove the potatoes from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes. Garnish with 2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley, if desired, before serving hot.
