What can be bad about a potato with garlic? Nothing. But these potatoes are one step above the amazing potato/garlic that exists on its own. It’s a burst of flavor from the garlic and herbs. You will get a gorgeous crust on the outside if you cook it on a cookie sheet. The fresh garlic makes this recipe amazing. Add the hot pepper flakes for another spicy element.
