Steamed Potatoes With Thyme Recipes

Steps:

• In a deep, medium skillet, bring water to a boil. Add quartered potatoes and simmer 12 minutes, until fork tender. Begin other recipes in your menu.
• Drain potatoes in a colander set over a pot. Allow the stock to cool and refrigerate for another use. Return the pan you cooked the potatoes in to heat over medium high. Add extra-virgin olive oil and butter, then, when butter melts add potatoes. Season potatoes with salt, pepper and chopped thyme. Coat and brown the potatoes, turning only occasionally, 7 or 8 minutes.

Steps:

• Peel a narrow strip of skin around the center of each potato. Place potatoes in a steamer basket; place in a saucepan over 1 in. of water. Bring to a boil. Cover and steam for 20-30 minutes or until tender. In a serving bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Add potatoes and toss gently to coat.

Steps:

• Line the bottom of the slow-cooker with bacon and toss half the thyme on top. Top with the potatoes, salt, bay leaves, and peppercorns. Pour the chicken broth over the potatoes and add water to cover the potatoes. Scatter the remaining thyme and the butter on top. Cover and cook on HIGH for 5 to 6 hours, or until potatoes are fork tender.
• Discard the bay leaves and peppercorns. Ladle into large shallow bowls and season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Steps:

• Wash the potatoes and cut them into half-inch cubes. Heat the oil in a large cast-iron skillet and add the potatoes (you may have to use two pans or do them in two batches). Stir to prevent them from sticking; then let them brown.
• Add the garlic and thyme and turn the potatoes so that they brown on all sides (about 20 minutes). Season with salt and pepper. Before serving, remove the garlic cloves.
