Ingredients
Instructions
- Set aside 1-2 tablespoons of garlic herb butter to soften to room temperature.
- Adjust rack to the top position and preheat oven to 450°F.
- Cut potatoes into about ½-inch-thick wedges. On a baking sheet, toss wedges with a large drizzle of oil, salt and pepper.
- Roast on the top rack until browned and crispy, 20-25 minutes.
- Remove baking sheet from oven. Carefully toss hot potatoes with the softened garlic herb butter.
- Optional: For a lemony twist, mix a pinch of lemon zest into the garlic herb butter before tossing with the potatoes.
Recipe Tips
For extra crispiness, make sure the potato wedges are spread in a single layer on the baking sheet without overcrowding.
If your garlic herb butter is very cold, let it sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes to soften before tossing.
Feel free to adjust the amount of garlic herb butter to your taste-use the full amount for a richer flavor.
