Skillet Italian Herbed Country Potatoes

Submitted by MarthaStewartWanabe

"This is a quick and easy potato side dish, which is my husband's most requested. This recipe can be modified, using many different combinations of herbs and spices, to accompany any meal. The recipe calls for fresh herbs, but one could substitute dried herbs as well. Just remember when using dried herbs, use half the amount called for in a recipe."

These potatoes were a nice change for us. I didn't have any sage so, I used a bit of herbes de provence that I had in my cupboard. The flavors meshed nicely. I liked that these potatoes weren't too crispy nor too soggy. I will definitely make these again and experiment with different spices. My man usually eats his taters with ketchup but, he said these had enough flavor by themselves. Thank you for sharing a new recipe that will allow us to have more variety with our potatoes.

Very good. Served as a side to 3-Ingredient Pan-Simmered Italian Boneless Pork Chops Recipe #373334. I used fresh parsley, garlic, dried rosemary, and italian herb seasoning because that's what I had on hand. I cut the potatoes very thin - next time I'll make them a little thicker. Thanks for sharing!

Really liked this one! Served it with flounder and a baked veggie side dish. Had to use canned sliced potatoes, which made this even quicker. Will make this one again! Thanks for sharing.
