Blackstone Lemon Herb Smashed Potatoes is a great side dish recipe for the griddle or flat top grill perfect served with steak!
- 1 1/2 pounds petite redskin or gold potatoes
- 4 tablespoons melted butter
- 2 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh chopped herbs of choice (I used thyme, rosemary, and dill)
- 4 to 5 cloves garlic finely minced
- cooking oil of choice
- kosher salt, pepper
-
Fill a saucepan with water, bring to a boil, salt the water with kosher salt and add the potatoes. Boil for 12 minutes (if they are regular size potatoes and not petite, boil for 18 minutes).
-
Combine the melted butter, lemon juice, fresh herbs, and garlic in a small bowl.
-
Preheat the griddle to medium heat for several minutes. Spread some cooking oil of choice on the griddle and put the potatoes on the griddle once hot and smash them with a burger press or cup. Season them with kosher salt and pepper.
-
Cook the potatoes 6 to 8 minutes total, flipping halfway through. Brush the lemon garlic herb butter on the potatoes during the last minute or two.
