Fancy Roast Potatoes

You finally decided to do a recipe with chicken and now it comes to picking what you are going to have with the it. Here is a classic side dish with a look you might not have seen before. Roasted potatoes with slices almost all the way through them and topped with a mix of butter and olive oil, salt and pepper, fresh minced garlic, and fresh thyme. Easy, delicious, and they have great presentation.

Yukon Gold and Red Skin Potatoes (1 or 2 per person)
Salt and Pepper
Fresh Thyme
Fresh Rosemary
Room temperature Butter
Olive oil

Preheat oven to 400

Make multiple slices down the length of the potato but take your time so that you don't cut all the way through. Drizzle the top of the potato with a touch of olive oil and smear with some of the butter. Season with salt and pepper, rosemary, and the leaves of a fresh thyme sprig.

Bake in the oven for 30-40 minutes until the potatoes are crisp and tender.
