Baby Potatoes:
- 2 pounds baby potatoes, halved
Garlic Butter Mixture:
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

- Coat the potatoes: In a large mixing bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes with the garlic butter mixture until well coated.
