Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
Peel each potato in one strip around the middle, leaving the peel on the top and bottom. Place the potatoes in a large saucepot and add enough water to cover them by about 1 inch.
-
Step 2.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook the potatoes until tender when pierced with a knife but still holding their shape, about 15 minutes.
-
Step 3.
Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add the butter and chopped parsley, then stir gently to coat the potatoes evenly.
-
Step 4.
Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Serve the potatoes warm.
