Smashed Potatoes with Garlic Aioli
Everything you have ever wanted from a Whole30 potato recipe! Crispy on the outside, smooth and creamy in the middle and loaded with flavor. Air fryer instructions included.
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1 pound baby potatoes red or golden
- 3 tablespoons ghee melted
- 2 tablespoons steak seasoning
- 2 teaspoons chive freshly chopped
For the garlic aioli:
- ½ cup mayonaiise whole30 compliant
- 3 cloves garlic minced finely
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare for baking by preheating your oven to 425F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Bring a medium-sized pot of water to a boil. Add washed baby potatoes and boil until fork tender. This will take about 15 minutes depending on their size.
- Remove the potatoes from the water and let them drain in a colander and cool slightly.
- Place the potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheet and use the bottom of a jar to smash each potato down until it's about 1/2 inch thick.
- Brush each potato with ghee, then evenly sprinkle the steak seasoning on top.
- Add the potatoes to the oven for 10-15 minutes or until they become crispy and golden brown.
- While the potatoes are baking, make the garlic aioli by stirring the finely minced garlic into the mayo and adding any salt and pepper as needed.
- Once the potatoes are out of the oven, garnish with a small dollop of aioli and a sprinkle of fresh chives. Serve warm.
