### Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Wash and dry potatoes thoroughly. Slice each potato thinly but not all the way through, leaving the base intact so the slices hold together like a fan.
3. Place the potatoes on a baking sheet or in a baking dish.
4. Drizzle olive oil or melted butter over the potatoes, making sure to get some between the slices.
5. Sprinkle garlic, herbs, salt, and pepper evenly over the potatoes.
6. Bake uncovered for 40-45 minutes until the edges are crispy and the inside is tender.
7. Garnish with fresh parsley or chives before serving.
