Ingredients
  

1.5 lbs baby potatoes (Yukon Gold or red)

3 tablespoons olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped

1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped

1 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional: 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Optional: Grated Parmesan cheese for extra flavor

Instructions
 

Prepare the Potatoes: Begin by washing the baby potatoes thoroughly. Cut them in half (or quarter them if they are larger) to ensure even cooking.

    Heat the Skillet: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

      Cook the Potatoes: Add the halved potatoes to the skillet, cut side down. Season with salt, pepper, and paprika. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, without stirring, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on one side.

        Add Garlic and Herbs: Once the potatoes are browned, flip them over and add the minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme to the skillet. Stir everything together, ensuring the garlic doesn’t burn. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender and infused with the garlic and herbs.

          Final Touches: Taste and adjust the seasoning as necessary. If desired, sprinkle some Parmesan cheese over the top and let it melt slightly.

            Serve: Remove from the heat and garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Serve hot, as a delightful side dish or a delicious main attraction!
