Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Baby potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 3 units Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 cup Low-sodium vegetable broth
Instructions
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and cut them into quarters. Ensure they are of equal size for even cooking.
In a large skillet, heat the extra virgin olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the quartered potatoes to the skillet, stirring to coat them in the garlic-infused olive oil. Sauté the potatoes for about 5 minutes until they start to develop a golden color.
Sprinkle the chopped fresh rosemary, salt, and black pepper over the potatoes. Stir well to ensure the seasonings are evenly distributed.
Add the low-sodium vegetable broth to the skillet and cover with a lid. Let the potatoes cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and cooked through.
Once the potatoes are tender, remove the lid and increase the heat to medium-high. Allow any remaining liquid to evaporate while stirring frequently to avoid sticking, about 3 minutes.
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the chopped parsley and lemon zest over the potatoes. Toss gently to combine.
Serve the sautéed potatoes warm as a nutritious heart-healthy side dish.
