  • 2 teaspoons finely minced Garlic
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh Parsley any variety is fine

  • Mix butter, salt, pepper, minced garlic, and parsley together in a small bowl.
  • Place sliced potatoes on a sheet of aluminum foil, spread 1/4 of the butter mixer over potato pushing some down into the cracks. Wrap foil up around potato keeping the crease of the foil at the top so the butter doesn’t run out. Repeat with the remaining potatoes.
