Cajun Potatoes

2 Servings

Ingredients:

    • 4 red potatoes, washed, dried, and quartered
    • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened and at room temperature
    • 1 teaspoon cajun seasoning
    • 1/8 teaspoon salt
    • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground

Directions:

Put the potatoes in a pot large enough for them to be covered by water. Place the pot over medium-high heat and bring the water to a simmer. Make sure the water doesn’t boil over. Cook until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and return them back into the pot.

Add the butter and seasonings. Using a wooden spoon, stir to incorporate the butter and seasonings. Smash the potatoes to your preference, but not mashed.

Serve warm on the side of a yummy main dish.

Enjoy!!
