Everyday Food - Crispy Garlic Potatoes + Salad Dressing

Skirt Steak with Crispy Garlic Potatoes. This is from the September 2008 issue of Everyday Food. Originally accompaniments to the Skirt Steak, we loved the Crispy Garlic Potatoes and the Salad Dressing even better than the steak!

The potatoes -- slice 1 1/2 pounds of red new potatoes 1" thick. Mince two cloves of garlic and press flat to make a paste. Transfer to a bowl and add 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme and 1 tablespoon of olive oil, mix together. Add and toss potatoes (much easier to toss in the bowl instead of per the directions on the baking sheet), put on large rimmed baking sheet and bake in 475 oven for 20-25 minutes until browned on underside.

The salad dressing -- combine 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard and 2 tablespoons olive oil.
