Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 lb (500g) baby potatoes scrubbed and cut into halves
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 6 cloves garlic peeled
  • 2/3 cup chicken broth
  • 3 tablespoons whipping cream
  • 6 sprigs thyme
  • 1 pinch salt or to taste
  • 1 pinch sugar
  • 2 dashes cayenne pepper

Instructions

  • Heat up a skillet (cast-iron preferred) on high heat. When the skillet is fully heated and hot, add the olive oil. Cook the potatoes, with the skin side up, first, until the potatoes turn golden brown.
  • Turn the potatoes over and cook the skin until they turn brown. Push the potatoes to one side of the skillet and add the butter and garlic. Saute the garlic for 30 seconds.
  • Add the chicken broth, whipping cream and thyme. Turn the heat to low and simmer the potatoes until they are cooked through, about 10 mins. Turn the potatoes while simmering. Add salt, sugar and cayenne pepper, stir to mix well. Turn off the heat and serve immediately.
