Olive Oil Braised Potatoes
Serves 4
Recipe By: Michael Chiarello
2 medium Idaho potatoes -- washed, skin on, cut into 1/2-inch slices
Gray salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup extra-virgin olive oil
6 sprig fresh thyme
4 garlic clove s
Preheat the grill. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Put the potato
slices on the hot grill and cook for about 2 minutes on each side to mark
them. Remove from the grill and place them in a single layer in a baking
pan. Season both sides with salt and pepper. Add enough olive oil to
reach 1/3 up the sides of the potatoes. Turn the potatoes over to coat
with the oil. Scatter the thyme and garlic clove s over the potatoes,
sprinkle with a little more salt, if desired, and place in the oven.
After about 15 to 20 minutes, the potatoes will be tender. Remove from
the oven and let them cool in the oil. Serve at room temperature.
Chef's notes: Using a high quality olive oil will impart its flavor
to the potato.
