- 2 pounds red potatoes
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 4 TBSPs butter melted
- 2 cloves garlic crushed
- 1/4 tsp dried oregano
- 1/4 tsp dried parsley
- 1/4 tssp dried basil
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1/3 cup mozzarella cheese
- 1/3 cup shredded parmesan cheese
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add 1 teaspoon kosher salt. Add the potatoes (whole) and cook for 30 minutes. Drain the potatoes.
Lightly spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Place the cooked potatoes on the baking sheet. Gently push down the potatoes with a fork or potato mashers. You are looking to just crack them, not mash them.
Season the potatoes with salt and pepper. Combine the melted butter, garlic, and dried seasoning. Pour the mixture over the potatoes and then top them with the cheeses.
Bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until the cheese is gooey and melted.
