Potatoes with Butter and Chives

Total time: 35 minutes
    Simple boiled potatoes with a twist: Sautéed in a bit of butter and topped with freshly snipped chives.

 Ingredients:

• 2 medium potatoes
• 1 tbs butter
• 2 tbs snipped chives
• salt & pepper

 Instructions:

• Scrub potatoes and cut into eighths - we want large but still bite-size pieces. 
• Put into a sauce pan and cover with water to which you add 1/4 tsp salt.  Cover and bring to a boil. 
• When boiling move cover so it is ajar else the potatoes will boil over.  They will, I promise.   Remove from heat when just barely done - a little under done is good(stick a knife in and test - should go in easily), about 15 minutes.  Drain. 
• In medium nonstick skillet melt butter over medium heat.  When hot add potatoes. 
• Snip chives with scissors. 
• When potatoes are just starting to get a golden color (on one or more sides - about 10 minutes) add chives. 
• Turn heat to low and continue to sauté another 10 minutes. 
• Remove, add salt and pepper if using and serve.
