Although I'm adding the whole recipe which was from Emeril, it's really not worth spending your time making the potatoes. The dip, on the other hand, is easy and heavenly.
If you don't cut the potatoes thin enough and don't use enough oil under them, on the pan, they will stick to the pan, so if you do decide to prepare them (because the herbs do give them a kick), make sure you have brushed enough oil under and over the potatoes.
If the dip comes out too dense, where it might even break the chips, add a little bit of sour cream to soften it up.
