You can’t go wrong with these tender, buttery, garlicky potatoes as a side dish for any occasion. From weeknight dinners to date nights, these potatoes will be a new staple on your table. Our secret ingredient? A little baking soda to really help the potatoes get those crispy edges we can’t get enough of. Feel free to throw in a pinch or two of your favorite dried herbs to punch up the flavor!
