Step 1: Preheat the Oven

  1. Preheat: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2: Prepare the Potatoes

  1. Wash and dry: Scrub the potatoes under running water and pat them dry with a towel.
  2. Poke holes: Using a fork, poke several holes in each potato to allow steam to escape while baking.
  3. Coat with oil: In a bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper. Rub this mixture all over each potato, ensuring they are well coated.

Step 3: Bake the Potatoes

  1. Arrange on a baking sheet: Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack or on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  2. Bake: Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until the skins are crispy and a fork easily pierces the potatoes.

Step 4: Serve

  1. Garnish: Once baked, remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Slice them open and fluff the insides with a fork.
  2. Add toppings: Drizzle with a little more olive oil or top with additional herbs. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
