CRISPY SMASHED POTATOES WITH CHIMICHURRI DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

• Add 1/4 cup oil to a baking sheet and coat generously. Gently dump or transfer the potatoes to the baking sheet using tongs. Smash the potatoes with a potato masher until the tops crack open. Drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper.
• Bake until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Transfer the potatoes to a platter. Top with chimichurri as desired.
• Add the garlic, cilantro and parsley to a medium bowl and stir to combine. Add enough oil for the desired consistency. Season with salt. Set aside.

• Bake in the preheated oven until browned on the bottom and edges, about 35 minutes.
• Meanwhile, prepare the chimichurri by combining parsley, basil, garlic, 2 tablespoons olive oil, vinegar, and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Stir together and let sit while potatoes finish baking.
