4tbspolive oil
1tspKosher salt
1tspblack pepper
1tspgranulated garlic
2tspfresh thymeroughly chopped
Instructions
Scrub your potatoes under water to remove any dirt/debris.
Place your washed potatoes in a medium-sized saucepan and fill with enough water to completely cover the potatoes. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and let the potatoes cook for about 15 minutes or until they are fork-tender.
Strain the water and lay out your potatoes on a flat surface.
Grab a pint glass or rocks glass, then pour 1 tbsp of the olive oil on a paper towel. Rub the olive oil all over the bottom of the glass. This will prevent your potatoes from sticking during the smashing process.
Push the bottom of the glass down on the potatoes until they are just flattened, but not broken in half. Repeat the process until all of your potatoes are smashed.
Coat the smashed potatoes in the remaining olive oil, then season both sides with the salt, pepper, garlic and thyme.
Preheat your grill to 450°F and place your smashed potatoes directly on the grates.
Let them grill for about 5 minutes per side until they are golden brown and crispy.
