Smashed Potatoes

 2 lbs. small yellow potatoes

2 tsp. sea salt, divided

2 T. extra virgin olive oil, more for the pans

1 1/2 tsp. garlic powder

3/4 tsp. onion powder

freshly ground pepper

1 T. finely chopped fresh herbs (parsley, chives and/or dill)

flaky sea salt

parmesan cheese, optional

Instructions

Preheat over to 425 degrees and liberally coat 2 baking sheets with olive oil.

Place the potatoes & 1 tsp. of the salt in a large pot & fill it with enough water to cover the potatoes by 1 inch. Bring to a boil & cook until the potatoes are soft & fork-tender, 15-20 minutes.

Drain the potatoes & let them cool slightly. Place each potato onto the oiled baking sheet & use the back of a measuring cup to smash them down until they are about 1/4" thick.

Drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, remaining 1 tsp. salt and pepper. Roast 25-35 minutes, or until golden brown & crisp around the edges, rotating the pans halfway.

Season to taste with more sea salt, or flaky sea salt, fresh herbs, an sprinkles of Parmesan, if desired.
