Crispy Garlic Butter Potatoes are golden and crunchy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside, and tossed in rich garlic butter for an irresistible side dish.

Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs baby potatoes or Yukon Gold potatoes, halved or quartered
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tbsp fresh or 1 tsp dried parsley (optional)
  • 2 tbsp grated Parmesan (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Toss halved potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  3. Spread cut side down on the sheet in a single layer.
  4. Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway, until crispy and golden.
  5. While roasting, melt butter in a saucepan and sauté minced garlic for 1–2 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat.
  6. Transfer roasted potatoes to a bowl, pour over garlic butter, and toss gently.
  7. Garnish with parsley or Parmesan if desired and serve hot.

Notes

  • Try adding paprika or smoked paprika before roasting for a smoky twist.
  • Toss with lemon zest and thyme for a bright, herby variation.
  • Reheat leftovers in the oven or air fryer to bring back crispiness.
  • Avoid microwaving, as it softens the texture.
  • You can parboil potatoes before roasting for an even fluffier interior.
