Ingredients
 

  • ● 1 ½ lbs. bag of Terrific Trio Little Potatoes Cut into ½ or ¼ depending upon the size
  • ● 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • ● 1 Tbsp butter melted
  • ● 1 medium shallot finely diced
  • ● 2 tsp fresh sage chopped
  • ● 1 tsp fresh thyme. Chopped
  • ● Kosher salt and fresh ground pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Dice the potatoes, cutting the larger ones in quarters and the smaller ones in half.
  • Place the diced potatoes in a large bowl and add the olive oil, melted butter, shallots, sage, thyme, Kosher salt, and fresh ground pepper. Toss to combine.
  • Place 2 sheets of parchment paper approximately 12” x 16” in size on the counter.
  • Fold the long end over in half and crease, then unfold.
  • Spoon ½ the potatoes onto one of the sheets of parchment paper on one side of the crease.
  • Fold the long end of the paper over to cover the potatoes and crease the edges together, folding them over in ¼ inch folders to create a tightly sealed paper packet. You should end up with a paper packet in the shape of a ½ moon.
  • Repeat with the second sheet of parchment and the remaining potatoes.
  • Place both packets on a large baking sheet and place them in the preheated oven.
  • Bake for about 40 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
  • Transfer the paper packets from the baking tray to a plate and serve immediately.
  • Cut or tear the paper open from the center when you are at the table. Each packet should serve 2 people.
  • You can season with salt upon serving if you want additional seasoning.
