I had never made these potatoes but I kept seeing others post them and they just looked so delicious I had to try them. I wasn't able to find a recipe...so I think I figured it out. They are super easy, but they do have to cook a while to get them soft in the middle then your going to let the crisp at the end. Perfect side dish! This is a small skillet, you can make it in a large skillet for many just as easy

Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 6-7 Unpealed Yukon Gold Potatoes You can use russets
  • 4 tbsp Unsalted butter, melted
  • salt and pepper
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/2 tsp granulated garlic
  • lemon juice, optional
  • fresh parsley

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400. Melt two tablespoons butter in a small skillet.   Slice the unpeeled Yukon Gold potatoes or potatoes of your choice as thin as possible with a mandoline.  Stack the potatoes and start lining the skillet, placing them in the skillet.  Salt and pepper the potatoes trying to get a little salt into the potatoes.  Add the 1/4 cup water and cover with foil.  
  2. Bake the potatoes for about 30 minutes or until they are tender when a knife or fork is inserted.  When they are tender, pour the last two tablespoons butter with the garlic, lemon juice and a pinch of salt over the potatoes.  Return to the oven and continue to bake until they are brown and crispy on top.  This is a beautiful side dish! Enjoy!
