Crisp-tender, garlicky, herb hasselback potatoes make for the perfect side dish! And they’re mini so it makes for easy serving!

You know, carb-loading on every count for my wedding next year.
I mean, these babies are so perfectly crispy on the outside and melt-in-your-mouth tender on the inside. Plus, the garlic and fresh herbs also gives it just enough flavor without overpowering your main entree.

Crisp-tender, garlicky, herb hasselback potatoes make for the perfect side dish! And they’re mini so it makes for easy serving!
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 1/2 tablespoons minced fresh basil leaves
1 tablespoon minced fresh chives
