2 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
2 tbsp fresh thyme, chopped
1/4 cup unsalted butter
3 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C).

7. Add minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme to the butter, cooking until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
8. Remove the herb-infused butter from heat and set aside.
9. Once the potatoes are done, remove them from the oven and make a slit on top of each.
10. Fluff the inside of the potatoes with a fork and drizzle with the herb-infused garlic butter.
11. Serve hot, topped with sour cream and a sprinkle of chives.
