Instructions

Start by washing the small red potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. If they're larger, cut them in half to ensure even cooking. Place them in a large pot and cover with water. Add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil.
Once the water reaches a rolling boil, reduce the heat to medium and let the potatoes simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender. Be careful not to overcook them, as they can become mushy.
While the potatoes are boiling, peel and finely mince the garlic cloves. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 2-3 minutes, just until fragrant. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them in a colander and return them to the pot. Pour the garlic butter over the hot potatoes and sprinkle with salt. Toss gently to coat the potatoes evenly.
Finally, add the coarsely chopped fresh Italian parsley to the potatoes and give everything a gentle toss until the parsley is evenly distributed.
Transfer the Garlic Parsley Potatoes to a serving dish and enjoy them warm. They make an excellent side dish for any meal and are sure to be a hit at your table.
