EASY AND SAVORY BOILED POTATOES



Easy and Savory Boiled Potatoes image

This can't get any easier, and is a nice side dish, but be forewarned that the potatoes will be tender but a little dry. I like as is, but some do pour olive oil over the potatoes.

Time 40m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

3 medium sized potatoes
1 1/4 cups chicken broth
olive oil (optional)

Steps:

  • Pour chicken broth over potatoes. If not completely covered, then add water until all potatoes are submerged.
  • Boil on medium heat until tender, about 30-40 minutes.
  • If you need to speed up the process, can boil covered for the last 10 minutes.
  • Drain.
  • Return potatoes to pot with flame off and let sit for a minute or two so any remaining water on potatoes can evaporate.
  • Can enjoy as is, or pour olive oil over potatoes to make more moist.
  • Enjoy!
