Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds baby potatoes
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped (optional)
• 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped (optional)

How to Make Herb-Seasoned Baby Potatoes

1. Start by washing the baby potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. You can leave the skin on for extra flavor.
2. In a large pot, add the potatoes and cover them with cold water. Add a pinch of salt to the water.
3. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and let the potatoes simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.
4. While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the herb dressing. In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper.
5. Once the potatoes are done, drain them in a colander and let them cool for a few minutes.
6. Transfer the warm potatoes to a mixing bowl. Drizzle the olive oil mixture over the potatoes and toss gently to coat.
7. Add the chopped parsley, chives, and dill (if using) to the potatoes. Toss again to distribute the herbs evenly.
8. Serve warm as a side dish, garnished with additional fresh herbs if desired.

Tips for the Best Results

• For a creamier texture, you can lightly smash the potatoes after boiling before tossing them with the herbs.
• Make sure to taste and adjust the seasoning before serving to ensure the best flavor.
• Use fresh herbs for a more vibrant taste; dried herbs won’t provide the same freshness.

Easy Variations

• Substitute the herbs with your favorites, such as basil or rosemary, for a different flavor profile.
• Add a squeeze of lemon juice for a refreshing citrus note.
• Mix in some grated Parmesan cheese for a cheesy twist.

What to Serve With It

• Grilled chicken or steak for a hearty meal.
• Roasted vegetables for a vegetarian option.
• Fish fillets, such as salmon or tilapia, for a light dinner.
• A fresh green salad to complement the potatoes.
