Ingredients
- 2 pound Yukon Gold potatoes
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 cup chicken broth
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Prepare the potatoes: Peel the Yukon Gold potatoes and cut them into thick rounds, about 1-inch thick.
- Season the potatoes: In a large mixing bowl, toss the potato rounds with melted butter, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper until well coated.
- Arrange on a baking sheet: Lay the potatoes in a single layer on a large baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded.
- Bake the potatoes: Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
- Add broth: Remove the baking sheet from the oven, flip the potatoes, and pour the chicken broth over them. This helps create a rich, flavorful base while making the potatoes tender inside.
- Finish baking: Return the potatoes to the oven and bake for an additional 20–25 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden and crispy on the edges, and the broth is mostly absorbed.
- Garnish and serve: Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.
