Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs new potatoes
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp lemon zest
Instructions
Wash the new potatoes thoroughly, leaving their skin on.
Cut any larger potatoes in half so they are all roughly the same size for even cooking.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and add the potatoes.
Cook the potatoes for 12-15 minutes, or until fork-tender.
While the potatoes cook, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the olive oil to the skillet to prevent the butter from burning.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to brown the garlic.
Drain the cooked potatoes and transfer them to the skillet with the garlic butter mixture.
Toss the potatoes in the skillet to coat them evenly in the butter.
Add the chopped parsley, dill, salt, and black pepper, stirring gently to combine.
Sprinkle the lemon zest over the potatoes and toss lightly to distribute.
Serve warm as a side dish, garnished with additional fresh herbs if desired.
