🍳 How to Make Creamy Garlic Sauce Baby Potatoes
Step 1 — Prepare the Baby Potatoes
Rinse your baby potatoes and slice them in half. Pat dry.
Season with salt, pepper, and olive oil. Toss to coat evenly.
Step 2 — Cook the Potatoes
In a large skillet, sauté the potatoes over medium heat for 12–15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden and fork-tender.
Alternatively, you can roast them at 400°F (200°C) for 25–30 minutes.
Step 3 — Make the Silky Garlic Sauce
In the same skillet or a new saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1–2 minutes until fragrant—do not burn.
Pour in the heavy cream and stir.
Sprinkle in the Parmesan and Italian seasoning.
Simmer for 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens into a luscious, creamy texture.
