Ingredients

4 medium Yukon Gold or russet potatoes, washed and dried
2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped
1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup sour cream (for serving, optional)
2 tbsp fresh chives, chopped

Instructions

1

Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
2

Place each of 4 washed and dried medium Yukon Gold or russet potatoes between two chopsticks or wooden spoons (to prevent cutting all the way through), and carefully make thin slices (about 1/8 inch apart) across the width of each potato.
3

In a small bowl, mix together 2 tbsp melted unsalted butter, 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, 2 cloves minced garlic cloves, 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh rosemary, 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves, 1/2 tsp kosher salt, and 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper.
4

Place the sliced potatoes in the air fryer basket and brush them thoroughly with half of the butter-herb mixture, making sure to get some between the slices.
5

Air fry for 20 minutes, then brush the potatoes with most of the remaining butter-herb mixture, reserving a small amount for later.
6

Continue air frying for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside when pierced with a fork.
7

In the last 5 minutes of cooking, sprinkle 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese over the potatoes.
8

Remove the potatoes from the air fryer and brush with the remaining butter-herb mixture.
9

Serve hot, garnished with 2 tbsp chopped fresh chives and a dollop of 1/2 cup sour cream (for serving, optional) if desired.
