Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds new potatoes
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Rinse the new potatoes under cold water to remove any dirt or debris. Leave the skins on and cut any larger potatoes in half to ensure even cooking.
Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold salted water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 12-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender. Drain the potatoes and set them aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat until the butter has melted and starts to slightly foam.
Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the skillet. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Add the drained potatoes to the skillet. Toss the potatoes gently to coat them completely in the garlic butter mixture.
Sprinkle the salt and black pepper over the potatoes, stirring gently to distribute the seasoning evenly.
Finely chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the potatoes. Toss once more to mix evenly.
Remove the skillet from heat and serve the Garlic Butter New Potatoes warm as a side dish to complement your favorite main course.
