Garlic Ranch Smashed

Parmesan Potatoes

Place potatoes in a pot and cover with cold water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, lower heat to a simmer, and cook until tender, about 10–15 minutes once simmering, depending on size.

Preheat the oven to 425°F. Drain the potatoes and let cool slightly. Mix the butter, ranch seasoning mix and parmesan cheese together and spread out on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Add the cooked potatoes to the sheet pan and coat them with the butter mixture. Using a glass or heavy small pot, press each potato until they are about ½-inch thick. Take a spoon or brush to get some of the remaining butter mixture on the sheet pan onto the tops of the potatoes.

Bake for about 25 minutes, until crisp. Cool slightly until they firm up a bit, then remove from the pan to a serving platter. Drizzle with the Garlic Ranch dressing or serve on the side for dipping.
