Creamy Garlic Sauce Baby Potatoes

Creamy, garlicky baby potatoes coated in a rich sauce, perfect for a comforting dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ pounds baby potatoes (red or gold, halved)
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 5 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup chicken broth (or vegetable broth)
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • ½ teaspoon salt (more to taste)
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon dried Italian herbs (or oregano + thyme)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Wash the baby potatoes under cold water and halve them for even cooking.
  2. Fill a large pot with salted water and bring to a boil. Carefully add the halved potatoes and boil for about 10-12 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain and set aside.
  3. Melt the butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté the minced garlic for about 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant.
  4. Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, stirring well. Simmer gently for about 5-7 minutes.
  5. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and combined.
  6. Add the salt, black pepper, and dried Italian herbs, adjusting to taste.
  7. Combine the boiled potatoes into the skillet, tossing to coat with the sauce.
  8. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
