Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
Heat the oven to 425°F. Cut slits in the potatoes ⅛ to ¼ inch apart, stopping at least ¼ inch from the bottom to keep the potato intact.

Gently toss the potatoes with olive oil and ½ teaspoon each of flaky sea salt and pepper. Transfer to a small rimmed baking sheet, cut sides up.
-
Step 3.
Roast until tender, golden brown, and crisp, 45 to 50 minutes. While the potatoes roast, prepare the scallion butter.
-
Step 4.
In a small bowl, combine the softened butter and finely chopped scallion until well mixed.
-
Step 5.
Dollop the scallion butter over the hot potatoes and serve.
