**Instructions:**
1. **Boil potatoes:** Place potatoes in a pot of salted water and boil until fork-tender (about 15–20 minutes). Drain and let cool slightly.
2. **Smash and season:** Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place potatoes on the sheet and use the bottom of a glass or fork to gently smash each one. Drizzle with olive oil or butter and sprinkle with salt, garlic powder, or herbs if desired.
3. **Bake and cheese it up:** Bake for 15–20 minutes until golden and crispy on the edges. Sprinkle with shredded cheese and return to the oven for another 5 minutes or until melted and bubbly.
4. **Serve hot:** Crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and gooey with cheese—these potatoes are the perfect partner to your garlic butter steak bites.
