Ingredients

  • 1 bag Alexia® Roasted & Ready® Baby Heirloom Potatoes with Steak Seasoning
  • ¼ cup Olive Oil
  • 2 tbsp Red Wine Vinegar
  • 1/4 cup Parsley, finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp Oregano, chopped
  • 2 Garlic Cloves, minced
  • 1/2 tsp Coarse Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Black Pepper

Directions

  1. To make the chimichurri sauce for smashed potatoes, add olive oil, vinegar, parsley, oregano, garlic, salt, and pepper to a small bowl and stir to combine. Set aside.

  2. Heat oven to 425°F. Spread entire bag of frozen potatoes evenly across an 11” x 17” baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 8 minutes. 

  3. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and carefully smash each potato with a potato masher or the bottom of a glass. Brush with oil and bake for another 8 minutes. 

  4. Remove the baking sheet from the oven once more. Flip the potatoes and brush again with oil. Bake for 8-9 minutes or until potatoes are golden and crispy. 

  5. Transfer potatoes to a plate. Drizzle sauce on top for chimichurri potatoes or serve on the side.
