Blackstone Griddle Grill Smash Potatoes
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes small to medium size or red potatoes
- 2 tablespoon olive oil or avocado oil or canola oil
- ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
- ¼ tsp+ coarse ground black pepper
- ½ tsp+ garlic powder
- optional garlic butter – 1 stick of butter melted, 2 minced garlic cloves, chopped parsley
Instructions
- Boil the baby potatoes in a large pot of salted water until they are tender and can be easily pierced with a fork. This usually takes about 15-20 minutes. Drain the potatoes, dry them with paper towels, and let them cool slightly.
- Preheat your Blackstone griddle to medium heat and then grease the griddle with the oil.
- Place the boiled potatoes on the griddle. Using a spatula or the bottom of a glass, gently smash each potato until it’s flattened but still in one piece.
- Sprinkle the smashed potatoes with the salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Melt the stick of butter and add minced garlic and chopped parsley. Drizzle this over the potatoes. (Optional step).
- Cook the potatoes for about 5 minutes on each side or until they're crispy and golden brown. You can drizzle them with garlic butter made from a stick of melted butter, minced garlic, and chopped parsley.
- Remove the potatoes from the griddle and serve. Enjoy!
Notes
- Terrific optional toppings are sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, and chives.
- Be careful not to oversmash the potatoes or they’ll fall apart on the griddle.
- The macros are without the optional butter drizzle. They're super delicious without but we gave the garlic butter idea for times you're feeling extra decadent.
- 1 healthy and light serving is ⅙ of the recipe. You can go for heartier portions if preferred!
- Serve the smashed potatoes with a lean protein and roasted veggies or a side salad for a high protein macro friendly dinner.
