Ingredients
- 12 small New potatoes
- 4 teaspoons butter
- 4 teaspoons minced fresh
- parsley or 1 1/3 teaspoons dried parsley
- 4 teaspoons minced fresh chives or 1 1/3 teaspoons
- dried chives
- Fresh parsley sprigs, optional for garnish
Preparation
Step 1
Peel 1/2-inch strip around the center of each potato and immediately place potatoes in a medium saucepan of cold water. Add enough additional water
to the saucepan to cover the potatoes by 2 inches. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Boil until the potatoes are easily pierced by a fork but firm, about
20 minutes; drain. Do not overcook. Cover to keep warm.
Place the butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on HIGH until melted, about 5 to 10 seconds. Stir in minced parsley and chives. Pour the butter mixture over the potatoes and toss to coat.
Spoon the potatoes into a serving bowl. Garnish with sprigs of parsley, if desired.
Serve immediately.
VARIATION:
For variety, sprinkle with chopped cooked bacon and/or finely minced green onions.
