Ingredients

• 2 pounds small yellow potatoes
• 1 stick butter
• 5 garlic cloves, minced
• ¼-cup low sodium soy sauce
• salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste
• ¼-cup chopped fresh parsley

Directions

• Scrub the potatoes with a clean produce brush to remove any dirt, then rinse.
• Place the potatoes in a large pot.
• Add enough cold water to cover the tops of the potatoes.
• Add 1 teaspoon salt to the water.
• Set pot over high heat and bring water to boiling.
• Reduce heat to medium and cover the pot with a lid.
• Cook the potatoes until tender, or about 15 to 20 minutes.
• Transfer potatoes to a colander; drain and wash with cold water.
• Let cool 5 minutes.
• Using the smooth side of a meat tenderizer, smash each potato to about ⅔ of their original size.
• In the meantime, melt the butter in a heavy bottomed skillet, such as a cast iron skillet.
• Add garlic and cook for 3 minutes over medium-heat, or until lightly browned, stirring very frequently. DO NOT burn the garlic.
• Add the smashed potatoes to the garlic butter. (youll have to do this part in batches)
• Cook on one side until golden brown and then flip and cook the other side until golden.
• Flip again and drizzle about a teaspoon of soy sauce over each potato.
• Remove from heat and transfer potatoes to a serving dish.
• Pour the remaining garlic butter over the potatoes. ( This is optional, but very good 😉 )*
• Season with salt and fresh ground pepper.
• Garnish with chopped parsley.
• Serve.
