3 1/2 lbs. red or white boiling potatoes
6 tbsp. butter, melted
Salt & pepper

Cut potatoes crosswise into 1/8" thick slices. Position oven racks in upper and lower third of oven, and preheat to 500 degrees. Lightly grease 2 baking sheets. Arrange potato slices in single layer on sheets. Brush generously with butter. Bake 7 minutes. Switch pan positions and continue baking until potatoes are crisp and browned around the edges, about 7 to 9 minutes. Transfer to heated platter. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.
