Crispy Potato Stacks with Magic Butter Sauce are a show-stopping side dish that combines irresistible layers of golden, thinly sliced potatoes with a luscious, herb-infused butter sauce. Perfect for holiday feasts or special dinners, this dish looks as impressive as it tastes.
The individually portioned stacks feel elegant and special, giving each guest their own beautifully crisp creation. Plus, the rich, buttery flavor and golden edges make these potatoes an unforgettable treat that’s simple to prepare yet impressive to serve.
These crispy potatoes are perfect for a small holiday gathering because they deliver big impact. We like to serve them with cranberry orange chicken thighs and festive Christmas salad.
Helpful Tips
- Use a mandolin for uniform slices: Consistently thin slices cook evenly and stack neatly, creating that signature layered look.
- Stack the potatoes high: Stack the potato slices up above the top of the cupcake tin. The stacks will shrink a little as they cook, so you want to make sure the stack them high.
- Don’t skimp on the butter sauce: Make sure each layer gets coated with the magic butter sauce for maximum flavor and a melt-in-your-mouth texture.
