Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a large (12-inch) cast-iron skillet, melt the butter with the olive oil over medium heat. Ensure the skillet is evenly coated. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Arrange the potato slices in a single, even layer on the bottom of the skillet. It's okay if they overlap slightly. (3 minutes)

03

Step

Cook the potatoes without stirring for 5-7 minutes, or until the bottoms are golden brown and slightly crisp. This step is crucial for achieving that desirable texture. (7 minutes)

04

Step

Sprinkle the potato slices evenly with the chopped thyme, parsley, rosemary, oregano, and paprika. Season generously with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. (1 minute)

05

Step

Carefully flip the potatoes using a spatula. Continue cooking for another 5-7 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and cooked through. (7 minutes)

06

Step

Turn off the heat. Sprinkle the minced garlic and cayenne pepper (if using) over the potatoes. Lightly toss the potatoes to evenly distribute the garlic and allow it to soften from the residual heat, about 1 minute. (1 minute)

07

Step

Serve immediately. Garnish with extra fresh herbs, if desired.

For extra crispy potatoes, avoid overcrowding the skillet. Cook in batches if necessary.
Feel free to experiment with other herbs such as sage or marjoram.
A mandoline slicer can help ensure even potato slices for uniform cooking.
If you don't have fresh herbs, dried herbs can be substituted. Use about 1 teaspoon of each dried herb.
For a richer flavor, try using brown butter instead of regular butter.
