Red Potatoes

Serves 4-6

1 ½ lbs small red potatoes, scrubbed

1 Tbsp olive oil

1 onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, crushed

1 ½ cups vegetable broth

1 cup fresh chopped Italian parsley

½ tsp black pepper

1 tsp crushed hot red pepper flakes

(if broth is unsalted, a dash of salt)

Peel a strip of peel from around the middle of each potato. Place in a bowl of cold water. Set aside.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat; add oil. Saute onion and garlic for 5 minutes or until softened. Add broth and 3/4 cup parsley and mix well. Bring to a boil.

Place the potatoes in the skillet in a single layer. Allow to return to a boil. Reduce heat and cook, covered for 10 minutes or more until potatoes are tender.

Remove potatoes with a slotted spoon or tongs and place on serving platter. Add pepper to skillet and stir. Pour contents of skillet over potatoes and sprinkle with remaining fresh parsley. Enjoy!
