1. Prepare PotatoesPreheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Peel the potatoes and cut them into 1-inch thick slices. Season with kosher salt and black pepper.

2. Sauté PotatoesIn a large skillet or oven-safe pan, heat the melted butter and olive oil over medium-high heat. Place the potato slices in the skillet in a single layer. Sauté for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.Avoid crowding the pan to allow even browning.

3. Add FlavoringsAdd the chicken broth, chopped garlic, rosemary, and thyme to the skillet, carefully pouring the broth around the potatoes to prevent splattering.

4. Bake PotatoesTransfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the broth is mostly absorbed.

5. Serve and GarnishRemove from the oven, drizzle with any remaining pan juices, and garnish with additional fresh herbs if desired.Allow the pan to cool slightly before washing to avoid damage from thermal shock.
