LEMON GARLIC SMASHED POTATOES

Ingredients:
2 lbs small yellow potatoes (ideally Yukon golds if you can find them but I just used yellow potatoes)
4-5 lemons (juice and zest)
8 cloves garlic, smashed
salt and pepper for seasoning
parsley for garnish
flaky sea salt for garnish
olive oil for drizzling

Directions:
Add your potatoes to a pot and cover with cold water
Add the juice of two lemons and your smashes garlic
Bring to a boil and cook until fork-tender (about 20 minutes)
Preheat your oven to 400
Drain and let cool for 5 minutes (this will allow the potatoes to release excess water) discarding the garlic
Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and drizzle with olive oil
Add your potatoes and smash to about 1/2 inch thickness
Brush or spray with olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper
Bake at 400 for 20 minutes
While the potatoes are baking, cut enough thin lemon slices to cover your potatoes
Flip your potatoes and add a slice of lemon to each
Bake for another 20-25 minutes until the edges are crispy
Garnish with lemon zest and a squeeze of lemon juice
Serve and ENJOY!
