Herbed New Potatoes

(from nollylover’s recipe box)

Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 20 minutes
Serves 4 people

Ingredients

  • 12 small new potatoes
  • 4 teaspoons butter
  • 4 teaspoons minced fresh parsley
  • 4 teaspoons minced fresh chives
  • fresh parsley sprigs, optional for garnish

Directions

  1. Peel 1/2-inch strip around the center of each potato and immediately place potatoes in a medium saucepan of cold water

  2. 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.

  3. Place the butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high until melted, about 5-10 seconds. Stir in minced parsley and chives. Pour the butter mixture over the potatoes and toss to coat

  4. Spoon the potatoes into a serving bowl. Garnish with sprigs of parsley, if desired. Serve immediately
