Roasted Baby Red Potatoes with Cracked Pepper and Garlic and Garlicky Sour Cream and Chives

Roasted Garlic is DELICIOUS! It has a much milder taste than raw garlic. So good for you too. We put it in so many things!

You will Need:

6-8 baby red potatoes

1 head of Garlic

1 TBSP EVOO

Fresh Ground Black Pepper

1 TBSP dried Garlic flakes

1/4 cup fresh chives, chopped

1 cup light Sour Cream

Putting it all together:

Pre-heat oven to 450 F.  Slice off the top of the head  garlic. Place garlic an a small square of foil, drizzle with a bit of EVOO. Roast in oven (no need for a pan) for about 20 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.

Pre-heat oven to 450 F. Wash potatoes with a veggie scrubber. Cut potatoes into 1/4 pieces. On a broiler pan, drizzle potatoes with EVOO and toss to coat. Coat generously with freshly ground black pepper. Sprinkle garlic flakes over potatoes.  Bake for 20-25 minutes untlil fork goes in easily.

In a small bowl, pop the cloves of garlic out of the skins using your fingers. Using a fork, smash the garlic cloves a bit.  Mix sour cream, garlic cloves and chopped chives with a fork.
