These SUPER crispy smashed potatoes are a delicious side you can easily make at home! Every edge of the potatoes are crispy, yet soft on the inside and seasoned beautifully topped with fresh herbs and lemon
Rinse potatoes of any excess dirt then fill in a large pot with cold water until fully submerged. Add 1/4 cup kosher salt and bring to a simmer over medium high heat. Simmer for 15-20 minutes or until fork tender and drain.
On a nonstick baking sheet, drizzle evenly with olive oil. Add the potatoes to the baking sheet and use a flat object or pan to smash the potatoes to a 1/2" thickness. Drizzle liberally with more olive oil and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
Roast the potatoes at 450F for 30-45 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
Season with salt to taste and garnish with fresh herbs and lemon. Enjoy!
