Garlic Potatoes

potatoes

I had wanted to make these potatoes, but the night I was to make them, I was also making baked chicken and my oven is kind of small.  So I improvised.  Instead of baking them I microwaved the potatoes in a Glad Steamer Bag (love those things!) and then finished off the potatoes in a skillet.  The potatoes came out great.

Garlic Potatoes

2 tbsp chopped garlic
1 tbsp olive oil
1 1/2 lbs potatoes
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1 Tbs dried parsley
1/2 tsp grated lemon rind

Wash the potatoes and cut into 1-1.5 inch chunks.  Put in a Microwave Steamer Bag.  Glad and Ziploc both make them.  Microwave 6-9 minutes.  My microwave takes 8 minutes in the steamer bags.  In a large skillet, heat the oil and add the garlic, saute for about a minute, then add the potatoes.  Sprinkle with the salt, pepper, parsley and lemon rind.  Cook about 5-7 minutes, turning the potatoes occasionally, or until the potatoes are as brown as you like them.
