Smashed Potatoes

Posted by Chef Don King, Culinary Market Specialist

These easy smashed potatoes make the ultimate side dish for virtually anything! They're best straight off the sheet pan, when they're still crisp and hot from the oven. Crispy and golden on the outside, fluffy and tender on the inside, and irresistibly delicious with our Greek seasoning, garlic and parmesan cheese.

Prep Time: 35 minutes
Cook Time: 35 minutes
Total Time: 70 minutes
Ingredients
  • 2 lbs baby White or Yukon Gold potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon Greek Seasoning 102692
  • ½ teaspoon course sea salt
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley
Instructions
  1. Place potatoes in a large pot of salted water. Bring the pot to a boil and cook, covered for 30-35 minutes or until potatoes are just fork-tender. Drain well and set aside.
  2. Pre-heat your oven to 425ºF
  3. Lightly grease a large baking sheet with a teaspoon of oil or oil spray. Arrange the cooked potatoes onto the baking sheet and use a potato masher to flatten the potatoes in one piece lightly. Do not push too hard, or potatoes will end up mashed.
  4. In a medium bowl, mix the butter, Greek seasoning, salt, pepper, minced garlic, parmesan, and parsley. Brush the mixture generously over each potato.
  5. Transfer the baking sheet with potatoes in the oven until potatoes are golden and crispy – about 15-20 minutes. Serve the smashed potatoes with more parmesan if you like. Enjoy
