Smashed Potatoes

Preheat oven to 450° F.

Boil potatoes in salted water until tender, but before skin breaks, about 15 minutes.

While potatoes are boiling, mix remaining ingredients to make the seasoning mixture. Taste and add salt and frresh cracked pepper to taste.

When potatoes are tender, pour them into a strainer in the sink and then bathe in cold tap water to stop the cooking process.

Lightly brush a large baking sheet with olive oil. Place potatoes about 1 inch apart and lightly smash them, without cutting them into separate pieces. Spoon a little of the seasoning mixture over each potato until the mixture is completely used.

Bake until crispy and golden.
