Red New Potatoes

Peel the center of your red potatoes if desired. This is completely optional. I like the final presentation of the dish with peeling the center away.

Boil the potatoes in water until tender – about 15 minutes.

Melt your stick of butter and add the fresh chopped parsley, cracked pepper, and salt. Pour the parsley butter mixture over the potatoes and stir to combine.
