Parmesan Crusted Smashed Potatoes

Step 1

Fire up your Pit Boss Platinum Series KC Combo and preheat the griddle to medium-low flame. If using a gas or charcoal grill, preheat a large cast iron skillet over medium-low heat.

Step 2

Evenly distribute the cooled potatoes on a metal sheet tray, drizzle with olive oil, and use a potato masher or small metal bowl to gently smash each potato to a height of about ¼ to ½ inch (thinner potatoes will be crispier).

Step 3

Mix together the butter and garlic. Brush the mixture over each potato, then season with salt and pepper.

Step 4

Pour vegetable oil on griddle, then add flattened potatoes. Cook for 3 minutes, then flip and sprinkle with half of Parmesan. Cook for 3 minutes, then flip, sprinkle with remaining Parmesan, and cook 1 minute.

Step 5

Transfer to a pan, sprinkle with parsley and serve hot.
