• Ready In: 1hr
• Ingredients: 14
• Serves: 20

ingredients

• 5 lbs tiny new potatoes
• 3⁄4 cup olive oil
• 1⁄4 cup melted butter
• 1 cup grated parmesan cheese
• 1 tablespoon dried basil
• 1 tablespoon dried oregano
• 1⁄2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
• 1⁄2 teaspoon dried rosemary, crumbled
• 1⁄2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1⁄2 teaspoon black pepper
• 3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
• 1⁄2 cup grated parmesan cheese

directions

1. Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2. Place the potatoes in a large saucepan of water. Cover; bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat; gently cook potatoes until tender but still firm, about 20 minutes. Drain.
3. Place potatoes on a greased, rimmed baking sheet. Smash the warm potatoes with the heel of your hand or a small pan to flatten slightly and break the skin.
4. Mix together the olive oil, butter, 1 cup Parmesan cheese, basil, oregano, thyme, rosemary, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper in a large bowl; add the potatoes and toss well. Return coated potatoes to baking sheet, leaving 1/2 inch space between each potato.
5. Roast potatoes in the preheated oven until lightly browned and slightly crispy; about 30 minutes. Place hot potatoes on a large platter; sprinkle with parsley and the remaining 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese.
