Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds baby potatoes
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 cups apple cider
- 1 cup chicken or vegetable broth
- 4 sprigs fresh thyme
- 3 cloves garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and leave the skins on. If some potatoes are larger than others, cut them in half to ensure even cooking.
Mince the garlic and set it aside. Chop the fresh parsley if using as a garnish.
In a large skillet or sauté pan with a lid, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the garlic to the pan and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.
Add the potatoes to the pan and stir to coat them evenly with the butter and garlic.
Pour in the apple cider and chicken or vegetable broth. Add the thyme sprigs, salt, and black pepper.
Bring the liquid to a gentle simmer. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pan, and let the potatoes cook for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are fork-tender.
Once the potatoes are cooked, remove the lid and increase the heat to medium. Allow the liquid to reduce slightly for 5-7 minutes, creating a light glaze that coats the potatoes.
Remove the thyme sprigs and discard. Transfer the potatoes to a serving dish and sprinkle with fresh parsley if desired.
Serve warm as a side dish or a standalone vegetarian main course. Enjoy!
