Comments:

- You can add many different herbs and seasonings to this recipe such as fresh chopped rosemary, thyme, parsley, paprika, cayenne pepper, etc.

- The key to this recipe is having your slices skin side down and the cut edges facing up. Both sides cook evenly, the potatoes don't stick to the pan and you don't have to turn them over halfway through cooking.

Tips:

- Line the pan with tin foil or parchment paper for easy cleanup.
