Herbed New Potatoes |
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 6 slices of bacon, cooked and crumbled fresh parsley sprigs, optional for garnish Directions: Wash the potatoes and peel 1/2" strip around the center of each potato and immediately place 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 5-10 seconds. Stir in parsley, chives, and bacon. Pour the butter mixture over the potatoes and toss to coat. Spoon the potatoes into a serving bowl. Garnish with sprigs of parsley. Serve immediately.
