2tablespoonsolive oil
¼cupunsalted buttermelted
3clovesgarlicminced
½teaspoonsea salt
½teaspoonblack pepper
¼cupParmesan cheesegrated

Instructions
Heat oven to 400 degrees F. Make slits in the potatoes, being sure not to cut all the way through, stopping at least 1/4 in. before the bottom. (Placing each potato between two skewers can help.)
Place the potatoes, cut sides up, on a large rimmed baking sheet. Whisk together the oil, butter, and garlic, then brush each potato with this mixture. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
Roast for 20 minutes. Remove potatoes from oven, brush again with butter mixture, then sprinkle with half of the Parmesan cheese. Return to oven and roast until tender and golden brown another 20-25 minutes.
When potatoes are done, remove them from the oven, sprinkle with the remaining parmesan and fresh thyme. Serve immediately.
